Metadata-Version: 1.1
Name: macholib
Version: 1.7
Summary: Mach-O header analysis and editing
Home-page: http://bitbucket.org/ronaldoussoren/macholib
Author: Ronald Oussoren
Author-email: ronaldoussoren@mac.com
License: MIT
Download-URL: http://pypi.python.org/pypi/macholib
Description: macholib can be used to analyze and edit Mach-O headers, the executable
format used by Mac OS X.
It's typically used as a dependency analysis tool, and also to rewrite dylib
references in Mach-O headers to be @executable_path relative.
Though this tool targets a platform specific file format, it is pure python
code that is platform and endian independent.
Release history
===============
macholib 1.7
------------
* Added support for ARM64, LC_ENCRYPTION_INFO_64 and LC_LINKER_OPTION
Patch by Matthias Ringwald.
* Load commands now have a "describe" method that returns more information
about the command.
Patch by David Dorsey.
* The MAGIC value in the header was always represented in the native
byte order, instead of as the value read from the binary.
Patch by David Dorsey.
* Added various new constants to "macholib.mach_o".
Patch by David Dorsey.
macholib 1.6.1
--------------
* ?
macholib 1.6
------------
* Add support for '@loader_path' link command in
macholib.dyld:
- Added function ``macholib.dyld.dyld_loader_search``
- This function is used by ``macholib.dyld.dyld_find``,
and that function now has an new (optional) argument
with the path to the loader.
* Also add support for '@loader_path' to macholib.MachoGraph,
using the newly added '@loader_path' support in the
dyld module.
Due to this suppport the *macho_standalone* tool can
now rewrite binaries that contain an '@loader_path' load
command.
macholib 1.5.2
--------------
* Issue #93: Show the name of the affected file in the exception message
for Mach-O headers that are too large to relocate.
macholib 1.5.1
--------------
* There were no 'classifiers' in the package metadata due to
a bug in setup.py.
macholib 1.5
--------------
macholib 1.5 is a minor feature release
* No longer use 2to3 to provide Python 3 support
As a side-effect of this macholib no longer supports
Python 2.5 and earlier.
* Adds suppport for some new macho load commands
* Fix for py3k problem in macho_standalone.py
Patch by Guanqun Lu.
* Fix for some issues in macho_dump.py
Patch by Nam Nguyen
* Issue #10: Fix for LC_DATA_IN_CODE linker commands, without
this fix py2app cannot build application bundles when
the source binaries have been compiled with Xcode 4.5.
* Issue #6: Fix for LC_ENCRYPTION_INFO linker commands
* Use the mach header information to print the cpu type of a
binary, instead of trying to deduce that from pointer width
and endianness.
Changed the code because of issue #6, in which a user tries to
dump a iOS binary which results in bogus output in the previous
releases.
* The mapping ``macholib.macho_dump.ARCH_MAP`` is undocumented
and no longer used by macholib itself. It will be removed
in the next release.
* The command-line tools ``macho_find``, ``macho_dump`` and
``macho_standalone`` are deprecated. Use "python -mmacholib"
instead. That is::
$ python -mmacholib dump /usr/bin/grep
$ python -mmacholib find ~
$ python -mmacholib standalone myapp.app
This makes it clearer which version of the tools are used.
macholib 1.4.3
--------------
macholib 1.4.3 is a minor feature release
* Added strings for 'x86_64' and 'ppc64' to
macholib.mach_o.CPU_TYPE_NAMES.
* macho_find and macho_dump were broken in the 1.4.2 release
* added 'macholib.util.NOT_SYSTEM_FILES', a list of
files that aren't system path's even though they are
located in system locations.
Needed to work around a bug in PySide (see issue #32 in the
py2app tracker)
macholib 1.4.2
--------------
macholib 1.4.2 is a minor bugfix release
* The support for new load commands that was added in 1.4.1
contained a typo that caused problems on OSX 10.7 (Lion).
macholib 1.4.1
--------------
macholib 1.4.1 is a minor feature release
Features:
- Add support for a number of new MachO load commands that were added
during the lifetime of OSX 10.6: ``LC_LOAD_UPWARD_DYLIB``,
``LC_VERSION_MIN_MACOSX``, ``LC_VERSION_MIN_IPHONEOS`` and
``LC_FUNCTION_STARTS``.
macholib 1.4
-------------
macholib 1.4 is a feature release
Features:
- Documentation is now generated using `sphinx <http://pypi.python.org/pypi/sphinx>`_
and can be viewed at <http://packages.python.org/macholib>.
- The repository has moved to bitbucket
- There now is a testsuite
- Private functionality inside modules was renamed to
a name starting with an underscore.
.. note:: if this change affects your code you are relying on undefined
implementation features, please stop using private functions.
- The basic packable types in ``macholib.ptypes`` were renamed to better
represent the corresponding C type. The table below lists the old
an new names (the old names are still available, but are deprecated and
will be removed in a future release).
+--------------+--------------+
| **Old name** | **New name** |
+==============+==============+
| p_byte | p_int8 |
+--------------+--------------+
| p_ubyte | p_uint8 |
+--------------+--------------+
| p_short | p_int16 |
+--------------+--------------+
| p_ushort | p_uint16 |
+--------------+--------------+
| p_int | p_int32 |
+--------------+--------------+
| p_uint | p_uint32 |
+--------------+--------------+
| p_long | p_int32 |
+--------------+--------------+
| p_ulong | p_uint32 |
+--------------+--------------+
| p_longlong | p_int64 |
+--------------+--------------+
| p_ulonglong | p_uint64 |
+--------------+--------------+
``Macholib.ptypes.p_ptr`` is no longer present as it had an unclear
definition and isn't actually used in the codebase.
Bug fixes:
- The semantics of ``dyld.dyld_default_search`` were changed a bit,
it now first searches the framework path (if appropriate) and then
the linker path, irrespective of the value of the ``DYLD_FALLBACK*``
environment variables.
Previous versions would change the search order when those variables
was set, which is odd and doesn't correspond with the documented
behaviour of the system dyld.
- It is once again possible to install using python2.5
- The source distribution includes all files, this was broken
due to the switch to mercurial (which confused setuptools)
macholib 1.3
------------
macholib 1.3 is a feature release.
Features:
- Experimental Python 3.x support
This version contains lightly tested support for Python 3.
macholib 1.2.2
--------------
macholib 1.2.2 is a bugfix release.
Bug fixes:
- Macholib should work better with 64-bit code
