GetLocalType truncated to 1024 chars #29

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
1. In IDA Create a "Local Type" that is really bigger than 1024 chars (e.g. by 
importing a 
.h file) - Ctrl-F9
2. Write a python script that calls GetLocalType(n, PRTYPE_MULTI|PRTYPE_TYPE)
3. Observer that it is truncated.

MAXSTR is 1024. But I have plenty of huge structures.

I'm using IDA 5.4 and whatever version of idapython that comes with.

The limit for return strings on GetLocalType is now 64KiB. If you need larger 
buffers you can use
idaapi.idc_get_local_type() directly.

Please try it and let me know if it does not work.
