1 year ago Hello!
It would be great to have you contributing to the project. We have a few ideas for student projects. If you want to email us at eschwartz@cert.org and cfc@cert.org we can discuss some more.
- Is there any documentation for developers?
Sadly, no, not really. The best resource is the *.hpp files in the libpharos directory.
I have noticed there is a tools directory, that is also where OOAnalyzer resides. It uses libraries in libpharos. I have also noticed there is a share directory where the prolog files are. They are used for the OOP analysis. I do not however understand where these files are used or called from the C++ code.
You can see around here: https://sourcegraph.com/github.com/cmu-sei/pharos@0a300e3a40e306dadcb99887beb42b62245d0d73/-/blob/libpharos/oosolver.cpp?L1441:11-1441:25
Any general advice on how to understand the source code?
We can probably help you directly. Send us an email!
I would like to contribute to the project. My focus will be on OOAnalyzer. I'm a Bachelor student and writing a bachelor thesis on the subject of "the recovery of OOP constructs from a C++ created binary". I would say I'm not an expert on the subject, but I do have time, so lets see what's possible. I have basic knowledge of C++ and very little experience with prolog.
My questions for now are:
