LibObjectFile is a .NET library to read, manipulate and write linker and executable object files (e.g ELF, ar, DWARF, COFF...)
NOTE: Currently LibObjectFile supports only the following file format:
- ELF object-file format
- DWARF debugging format (version 4)
- Archive
arfile format (Common, GNU and BSD variants)There is a longer term plan to support other file formats (e.g COFF, MACH-O, .lib) but as I don't have a need for them right now, it is left as an exercise for PR contributors! ;)
Usage
// Reads an ELF file
using var inStream = File.OpenRead("helloworld");
var elf = ElfObjectFile.Read(inStream);
foreach(var section in elf.Sections)
{
Console.WriteLine(section.Name);
}
// Print the content of the ELF as readelf output
elf.Print(Console.Out);
// Write the ElfObjectFile to another file on the disk
using var outStream = File.OpenWrite("helloworld2");
elf.Write(outStream);
Features
- Full support of Archive
arfile format including Common, GNU and BSD variants. - Good support for the ELF file format:
