Struct object::write::pe::Writer

pub struct Writer<'a> { /* private fields */ }

A helper for writing PE files.

Writing uses a two phase approach. The first phase reserves file ranges and virtual address ranges for everything in the order that they will be written.

The second phase writes everything out in order. Thus the caller must ensure writing is in the same order that file ranges were reserved.

Implementations

impl<'a> Writer<'a>

pub fn new( is_64: bool, section_alignment: u32, file_alignment: u32, buffer: &'a mut dyn WritableBuffer ) -> Self

Create a new Writer.

pub fn virtual_len(&self) -> u32

Return the current virtual address size that has been reserved.

This is only valid after section headers have been reserved.

pub fn reserve_virtual(&mut self, len: u32) -> u32

Reserve a virtual address range with the given size.

The reserved length will be increased to match the section alignment.

Returns the aligned offset of the start of the range.

pub fn reserve_virtual_until(&mut self, address: u32)

Reserve up to the given virtual address.

The reserved length will be increased to match the section alignment.

pub fn reserved_len(&self) -> u32

Return the current file length that has been reserved.

pub fn len(&self) -> usize

Return the current file length that has been written.

pub fn reserve(&mut self, len: u32, align_start: u32) -> u32

Reserve a file range with the given size and starting alignment.

Returns the aligned offset of the start of the range.

pub fn reserve_file(&mut self, len: u32) -> u32

Reserve a file range with the given size and using the file alignment.

Returns the aligned offset of the start of the range.

pub fn write(&mut self, data: &[u8])

Write data.

pub fn reserve_align(&mut self, align_start: u32)

Reserve alignment padding bytes.

pub fn write_align(&mut self, align_start: u32)

Write alignment padding bytes.

pub fn write_file_align(&mut self)

Write padding up to the next multiple of file alignment.

pub fn reserve_until(&mut self, offset: u32)

Reserve the file range up to the given file offset.

pub fn pad_until(&mut self, offset: u32)

Write padding up to the given file offset.

pub fn reserve_dos_header(&mut self)

Reserve the range for the DOS header.

This must be at the start of the file.

When writing, you may use write_custom_dos_header or write_empty_dos_header.

pub fn write_custom_dos_header( &mut self, dos_header: &ImageDosHeader ) -> Result<()>

Write a custom DOS header.

This must be at the start of the file.

pub fn write_empty_dos_header(&mut self) -> Result<()>

Write the DOS header for a file without a stub.

This must be at the start of the file.

Uses default values for all fields.

pub fn reserve_dos_header_and_stub(&mut self)

Reserve a fixed DOS header and stub.

Use reserve_dos_header and reserve if you need a custom stub.

pub fn write_dos_header_and_stub(&mut self) -> Result<()>

Write a fixed DOS header and stub.

Use write_custom_dos_header and write if you need a custom stub.

pub fn nt_headers_offset(&self) -> u32

Return the offset of the NT headers, if reserved.

pub fn reserve_nt_headers(&mut self, data_directory_num: usize)

Reserve the range for the NT headers.

pub fn set_data_directory( &mut self, index: usize, virtual_address: u32, size: u32 )

Set the virtual address and size of a data directory.

pub fn write_nt_headers(&mut self, nt_headers: NtHeaders)

Write the NT headers.

pub fn reserve_section_headers(&mut self, section_header_num: u16)

Reserve the section headers.

The number of reserved section headers must be the same as the number of sections that are later reserved.

pub fn write_section_headers(&mut self)

Write the section headers.

This uses information that was recorded when the sections were reserved.

pub fn reserve_section( &mut self, name: [u8; 8], characteristics: u32, virtual_size: u32, data_size: u32 ) -> SectionRange

Reserve a section.

Returns the file range and virtual address range that are reserved for the section.

pub fn write_section(&mut self, offset: u32, data: &[u8])

Write the data for a section.

pub fn reserve_text_section(&mut self, size: u32) -> SectionRange

Reserve a .text section.

Contains executable code.

pub fn reserve_data_section( &mut self, virtual_size: u32, data_size: u32 ) -> SectionRange

Reserve a .data section.

Contains initialized data.

May also contain uninitialized data if virtual_size is greater than data_size.

pub fn reserve_rdata_section(&mut self, size: u32) -> SectionRange

Reserve a .rdata section.

Contains read-only initialized data.

pub fn reserve_bss_section(&mut self, size: u32) -> SectionRange

Reserve a .bss section.

Contains uninitialized data.

pub fn reserve_idata_section(&mut self, size: u32) -> SectionRange

Reserve an .idata section.

Contains import tables. Note that it is permissible to store import tables in a different section.

This also sets the pe::IMAGE_DIRECTORY_ENTRY_IMPORT data directory.

pub fn reserve_edata_section(&mut self, size: u32) -> SectionRange

Reserve an .edata section.

Contains export tables.

This also sets the pe::IMAGE_DIRECTORY_ENTRY_EXPORT data directory.

pub fn reserve_pdata_section(&mut self, size: u32) -> SectionRange

Reserve a .pdata section.

Contains exception information.

This also sets the pe::IMAGE_DIRECTORY_ENTRY_EXCEPTION data directory.

pub fn reserve_xdata_section(&mut self, size: u32) -> SectionRange

Reserve a .xdata section.

Contains exception information.

pub fn reserve_rsrc_section(&mut self, size: u32) -> SectionRange

Contains the resource directory.

This also sets the pe::IMAGE_DIRECTORY_ENTRY_RESOURCE data directory.

pub fn add_reloc(&mut self, virtual_address: u32, typ: u16)

Add a base relocation.

typ must be one of the IMAGE_REL_BASED_* constants.

pub fn has_relocs(&mut self) -> bool
