Description:
<nowiki>The radare project aims to provide a complete unix-like toolchain for working with binary files. It currently provides a set of tools to work with x86, arm and java with some ones powerpc.

The core is a raw hexadecimal editor for commandline with scripting features and perl/python extensions that gets extended with IO plugins that hooks the open/read/write/close/system calls.

The debugger and disassembler has a code analysis module for x86, mips, arm and java. This way it's possible to draw graphs using Cairo on a GTK window or store the flow execution of a program on a log file and use the information to diff't against another trace or binary.

The toolchain provides assemblers and disasemblers for x86, arm, mips (Loongson2F), sparc, CSR, m68k, powerpc, msil and java.

The disassembler has been enhaced to handle inline comments, code block detections and flag references (data pointers or so).

The debugger is mainly developed on linux and {Net

Tool Updated: High Level Assembly (HLA)

Sun, 19 Jul 2009 05:00:58 GMT

Listed in categories: Assemblers

Most recent version:
1.106

Most recent release date:
July 18, 2009

Description:
The HLA (High Level Assembly) language was developed as a tool to help teach assembly language programming and machine organization to University students at the University of California, Riverside. The basic idea was to teach students assembly language programming by leveraging their knowledge of high level languages like C/C++ and Pascal/Delphi. At the same time, HLA was designed to allow advanced assembly language programmers write more readable and more powerful assembly language code.

With the publication of "The Art of Assembly Language" from No Starch Press, the High Level Assembler has entered the mainstream. Tens of thousands of programmers the world over have discovered how easy it is to learn and write assembly language using HLA. What started out as a tool for teaching assembly language programming has blossomed into a popular Windows and Linux based software development tool.

Today, several third party tool authors are supporting HLA as well. This includes a couple of integrated development environments, a debugger, and other tools. More are on the way!

Sun, 19 Jul 2009 04:59:16 GMT

Listed in categories: Assemblers

Most recent version:
1.68

Most recent release date:
July 18, 2009

Description:
From the source:

"The flat assembler is a fast and efficient self-assembling 80x86 assembler for DOS, Windows and Linux operating systems. Currently it supports all 8086-80486/Pentium instructions with MMX, SSE, SSE2, SSE3 and 3DNow! extensions and x86-64 (both AMD64 and EM64T) instructions, can produce output in binary, MZ, PE, COFF or ELF format. It includes the powerful but easy to use macroinstruction support and does multiple passes to optimize the instruction codes for size. The flat assembler is self-compilable and the full source code is included.

The only difference between the various flat assembler packages is the operating system on which they can be executed. From given source each version will generate exactly the same output file, so with each of the following releases you can compile programs for any operating system."

Tool Updated: MASM32

Sat, 18 Jul 2009 20:47:44 GMT

Listed in categories: Assemblers

Most recent version:
10.0

Most recent release date:
August 13, 2008

Description:
NOTE: Not to be confused with MASM - Microsoft Macro Assembler (see separate entry)

MASM32 is a set of 32-bit assembler development tools and libraries for Windows containing Microsoft's MASM assembler and linker. MASM32 is known as a language with a lot of macros compared to other ASM languages, but has a more easily understandable coding system than standard PC ASM.

Installation is an automated process that will install on the local drive of your choice. MASM32 will not install on a network drive.

An assembler as powerful as MASM is capable of enmulating higher level languages while maintaining the performance and size of assembler code. This has been demonstrated with C style code that MASM already supports. The macro capacity built into MASM has allowed the development of a combined macro and library system that partly emulates basic style string handling and other similar language capacities. This allows experienced programmers with multiple language skills to leverage their existing skills and get up to pace writing MASM code more quickly.

MASM already is capable of building UNICODE applications using the traditional resource string method but additional macros are now supplied to write UNICODE strings directly into the data section in the same manner as normal BYTE data to make the capacity easier to use. There are a couple of UNICODE examples in the example code that show both methods.

Pelle Orinius has given permission to include his high performance linker and library manager in MASM32 for advanced assembler programmers who want to extract further size reductions from their code. Vladimir Kim's VKdebug is included to make fast debugging easier to use, Ernie Murphy's research work writng COM in MASM continues to be very popular and there is some very clever OOP example code written by Jaymeson Trudgden and Thomas Bleeker (NaN and Thomas) for programmers interested in this style of code design. A subset of Iczelion's classic tutorials are included in MASM32.

MASM32 comes with its own small default editor that has a reasonable number of prebuilt scripts to make code generation fast and easy. There is the choice of two seperate code generators for creating full window skeletons to develop application in. The editor has a large range of Winhelp help files so that information is available quickly when you need it and its menu system is extendable so you can add more information as you need it. You can easily extend this capacity by rolling your own scripts and prebuilt templates.

MASM32 assumes that the programmers who will use it already have experience in 32 bit Windows API programming using compilers and have done some work in assembler. It is not designed as a beginners package and it does not have the support for beginners to learn the basic concepts about assembler. It is recommended that beginners to programming learns a compiler like C/C++ Pascal/Delphi or PowerBASIC before they start on an assembler as this will produce the necessary experience to deal with concepts like registers, data sizes or registers, data types, assembler mnemonics, system API calls and different calling conventions. The learner can always come back to assembler once they are familiar and confortable with a compiler.

Listed in categories: Assembler IDE Tools, Assemblers, Debuggers, Disassemblers

Most recent version:
2.051a

Most recent release date:
April 15, 2009

Description:
Previously known as SpAsm.

The easy way for writing full 32 Bits Applications in Assembly

IDE with full integration of all components. RosAsm is auto-compilable and the Sources are hosted inside the PEs. No installation overhead (the silent auto-install coming with RosAsmFull.zip makes RosAsm the only actual Click&Go Assembler environment).

Real Sources Editor with tons of unique features, specificaly devoted to secure editions and to huge mono-files assembly sources: Tree-view, instant jump to any type of declaration by simple right-click, division of the mono-files into TITLEs, advanced IncIncluder pre-parser, and so on...

The fastest of the actual assemblers, (1.5 Mega/second on a Celeron 1.3 Ghz...) directly outputting PE files on a simple click, with a powerful macros system (a macros unfolder is available by a double-click, through a float menu). Simplified Intel syntax. Does not need any include, prototype or header companion file. Nothing but a single simple source. Complete implementation of the mnemonics set, up to SSE3. RosAsm Bottom-Up Assembler is a true low level Assembler, enabling HLL writing styles by user defined macros and/or by HLL pre-parsers selections.

Selectable Pre-Parsers performing various tasks, like HLL expressions parsing, alternate syntaxes, Includes Managements, ...

Source level Debugger with a state-of-the-art memory inspector and very advanced features, like the dynamic break-points, that can be set/removed by simple clicks, as well as at write-time and/or at run-time, like with the most advanced HLLs. To run the Debugger, You simply click on Run and your application is running through the debugger. Any error (or break-point, enabling advanced stepping modes) is pointed out directly in your source code. Accurate messages are delivered on errors cases.

Disassembler. To date, RosAsm is the one and only two-clicks-disassembler-reassembler ever seen. It is, actually, fully effective on most small files and on many middle size applications: The dream tool for study and/or for porting your works to assembly.

Original Resources Editors, with control of matching styles, outputting as well resources, files, and memory templates.

Integrated Help system, with a complete 32 bits Assembly Tutorials, Opcode help, and RosAsm Manual (2 megas of documentation, more than 600 organised rtf files).

Clip file system, for templates reuse.

Integrated OS Equates, and Structures files, saving from any boring include.

... and much more...

Take care that, as opposed to most RAD/IDEs, RosAsm does not attempt to impress you with multiple windows jumping all over the screen and with insistant features. Instead, RosAsm features implementations have always been made as discreet and as silent as possible, and the overall look-and-feel has always been made as naked and as simple as possible. Many implementations are optional, through the configuration tab.

Though RosAsm is the most accurate tool for learning the marvelous simplicity of Assembly - particulary since the inclusion of the Interactive Visual Tutorials - and though it is the easiest way to jump right into the true thing, it has been thought and designed, first, as a professional tool for real life applications programming in full assembly. Its final purpose is to compete with the current most commonly used HLLs, for serious applications writing. This goal will be achieved, in the near future, with the upcoming implementations of the Visual Components Designers (Wizards) and with the implementations of some Applications builders.
