All releases of The bastard disassembler
Release Notes: Library signature recognition is now supported via the signatures plugin; control-flow graph generation and output of graphs in GDL format is now supported via the graph plugin. Both PE and AR file formats are supported. Autodecection of the target file format is now supported via a 'magic(5)'-style conf file as used by file(1). An ncurses front-end named 'bda' has been provided.
Release Notes: Fixes for build errors and disassembler bugs, new output plugins, system call recognition, new man pages, and new UNIX interpreter-style behavior (support for #! scripts).
Release Notes: Bugs in the disassembler (disp32, 0x0F bugs) have been fixed. A GUI frontend has been added to the main Makefile, and autogen/configure has been replaced with more simple, more reliable Makefiles.
Release Notes: This is very much a bugfix, "caveat compilor" release. The API function names have changed, and are now broken up into files in include/api. The docs have been munged with sed to reflect this, but no real attempt at redocumenting has been made for this release. Thus, in all cases where the documentation seems inaccurate, refer to the source and .bc scripts. Further, there is an experimental UI in src/sob. The UI was created with Glade and is far from complete. However, it is somewhat useable and permits niceties like DB browsing. The UI is to be considered extremely unsupported.
Release Notes: Bugs in the install process have been fixed (EiC and the DBs now behave correctly). ~/.bastard directory was added to store target DBs as they are being worked on. config.db was replaced with a ~/.bastard/cmd_history. Support for ~/.bastard/bastard.rc and /etc/bastard.rc added. CLI access to options using "SET" and "SHOW" was refined.
Release Notes: Added extensions (modules for CPU, assembler, source language, and also plugins). Wrote a basic Tk frontend, and added support for structures.
Release Notes: A more reliable Makefile, fixes for string and subroutine recognition, more sensible output, new command line features, and some documentation.
Release Notes: The base functionality is there, but the code is not complete. The program depends upon: libreadline [not included], typhoon RDB [included], and seer interpreter [included]. Basic [non-FPU, non-MMX, etc] x86 instructions are supported. Work is currently being done on adding higher-level disassembly[/decompilation] features. As of .08, address naming, subroutine recognition, xrefs, and library imports are functional. Strings are 'in the works.' Documentation is sparse.
