|
|
|
|
below.
|
|
|
|

Out of 8 archtitectures supported by Capstone (Arm, Arm64, Mips, PPC, Sparc,
|
|
|
|
SystemZ, X86 & XCore), if you just need several selected archs, choose the ones
|
|
|
|
you want to compile in by opening Visual Studio solution "msvc\capstone.sln",
|
|
|
|
then directly editing the projects "capstone_static" & "capstone_dll" for static
|
|
|
|
and dynamic libraries, respectively. This must be done before going to the
|
|
|
|
next steps.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
In VisualStudio interface, modify the preprocessor definitions via
|
|
|
|
"Project Properties" -> "Configuration Propertis" -> "C/C++" -> "Preprocessor"
|
|
|
|
to customize Capstone library, as followings.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- CAPSTONE_HAS_ARM: support ARM. Delete this to remove ARM support.
|
|
|
|
- CAPSTONE_HAS_ARM64: support ARM64. Delete this to remove ARM64 support.
|
|
|
|
- CAPSTONE_HAS_MIPS: support Mips. Delete this to remove Mips support.
|
|
|
|
- CAPSTONE_HAS_PPC: support PPC. Delete this to remove PPC support.
|
|
|
|
- CAPSTONE_HAS_SPARC: support Sparc. Delete this to remove Sparc support.
|
|
|
|
- CAPSTONE_HAS_SYSZ: support SystemZ. Delete this to remove SystemZ support.
|
|
|
|
- CAPSTONE_HAS_X86: support X86. Delete this to remove X86 support.
|
|
|
|
- CAPSTONE_HAS_XCORE: support XCore. Delete this to remove XCore support.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, all 8 architectures are compiled in.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Besides, Capstone also allows some more customization via following macros.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
- CAPSTONE_USE_SYS_DYN_MEM: delete this to use your own dynamic memory management.
|
|
|
|
- CAPSTONE_DIET_NO: rename this to "CAPSTONE_DIET" to make the binaries more compact.
|
|
|
|
- CAPSTONE_X86_REDUCE_NO: rename this to "CAPSTONE_X86_REDUCE" to make X86 binary smaller.
|
|
|
|
- CAPSTONE_X86_ATT_DISABLE_NO: rename this to "CAPSTONE_X86_ATT_DISABLE" to disable
|
|
|
|
AT&T syntax on x86.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
By default, Capstone use system dynamic memory management, and both DIET and X86_REDUCE
|
|
|
|
modes are disable.
