ask_ida/c++-IDA Pro & Hex-Rays Assistant

Example

If a user wants to find and rename functions starting with a specific prefix, ask_ida/c++ would provide a detailed code snippet using IDA SDK functions like `get_func_qty`, `getn_func`, and `set_name`.

Scenario

This can be particularly useful in reverse engineering tasks where identifying and renaming functions systematically can aid in understanding malicious binaries or complex software.

Example

Users can request examples on how to navigate and edit structures within disassembled binaries, where ask_ida/c++ would illustrate the use of `get_struc_id`, `get_member_offset`, and `set_member_type`.

Scenario

This is beneficial for reverse engineers and malware analysts who need to dissect complex data structures within a binary to uncover its functionalities.

Example

For users looking to automate repetitive tasks, ask_ida/c++ can provide scripting examples using IDA Python or IDC scripts, demonstrating how to loop through functions, mark patterns, or extract specific data.

Scenario

This function aids in automating mundane tasks, allowing analysts to focus on more complex aspects of reverse engineering and binary analysis.
