ELFParser

requirement

install

  • git clone {this project}
  • make ( build executable file )
  • make test ( test the parser's functions )

how to use

Usage: ELFParser [FilePath] [ResultPath] [disassemblePath]

ex: 
./ELFHeaderParser ./test/sample/arm_sample ./arm.json ./arm.asm

./ELFHeaderParser ./test/sample/mips32_sample ./mips.json ./mips.asm

result
