This is my attempt to create a debugger in cpp with the help of external dependencies: linenoise and libelfin.
Currently, one can set breakpoints and continue execution, read and write any register and also memory
- linenoise
- libelfin
Install the dependencies in the appropriate directories.
- Download this repositary.
- Type the following commands in your terminal:
cmake CMakeLists.txt make
- To run
./mydbg <your_program> - To add breakpoint
b <offset_of_your_breakpoint> - To continue execution
c - To see all registers
regs dump - To read a particular register
regs r <reg_name> - To write in a particular register
regs w <reg_name> <data_to_be_written_in_hexadecimal_format> - To read a certain address in memory
mem r <addr_offset> - To write to a certain address in memory
mem w <addr_offset> <data_to_be_written_in_hexadecimal_format> - To view call stack
sc - To exit
q - To execute shell command
cmd <command> - For help
