6Building SWIG Modules
7---------------------
8
9	make
10	make install
11
12Make and Install both build Python, Perl, Ruby, and Tcl modules. If you
13do not have one of these languages installed, comment out the relevant
14target in the main Makefile.
15
16Install uses 'sudo' to put files in the correct locations; if you
17do not have sudo installed, change the install targets.

26The Python Module
27-----------------
28
29To test that the module loads:
30
31	bash# python
32	>>> import x86disasm
33	>>> x86disasm.version_string()
34	'0.21-pre'
35	>>>^D
36	bash#
37
38	>>> import x86disasm
39	>>> import array
40	>>> disasm = x86disasm.X86_Disasm( )
41	>>> tgt = open( "/tmp/a.out", "rb" )
42	>>> tgt.seek( 0, 2 )
43	>>> size = tgt.tell()
44	>>> tgt.seek( 0, 0 )
45	>>> buf = array.array( 'B' )
46	>>> buf.fromfile( tgt, size )
47	>>> tgt.close()
48	>>> data = x86disasm.byteArray( size )
49	>>> for i in range( size ):
50	...     data[i] = buf.pop(0)
51	...
52	>>> del buf
53	>>> del tgt
54	>>> insn = disasm.disasm( data, size - 1, 0, 0 )
55	>>> insn.format( x86disasm.att_syntax )
56	 'jg\t0x00000047'
57	>>> insn.format( x86disasm.raw_syntax )
58	'0x00000000|0x00000000|2|7F 45 |||controlflow|jcc|jg|80386|General Purpose|||zero_clear sign_eq_oflow |0|0|relative|sbyte|00000047|'
59	>>> ops = insn.operand_list()
60	>>> node = ops.first()
61	>>> while node is not None:
62	...     s = node.op.format(x86disasm.raw_syntax)

73The Perl Module
74---------------
75
76To test that the module loads:
77
78	bash# perl
79	use x86disasm;
80	print x86disasm::version_string() . "\n";
81	^D
82	0.21-pre
83	bash#
84
85The Ruby Module
86---------------
87
88To test that the module loads:
89
90	bash# irb
91	irb(main):001:0> require 'x86disasm'
92	=> true
93	irb(main):002:0> X86disasm.version_string()
94	=> "0.21-pre"
95	irb(main):003:0> x = X86disasm::X86_Disasm.new
96	=> #<X86disasm::X86_Disasm:0xb7d624a4>
97	irb(main):004:0> x.max_register_string()
98	=> 8
99	irb(main):003:0> ^D
100	bash#
101
102The Tcl Module
103---------------
104
105To test that the module loads:
106
107	bash# tclsh
108	% load /usr/lib/tcl8.3/x86disasm.so X86disasm
109	% version_string
110	0.21-pre
111	% ^D
112	bash#
113
114	% x86_init 0 NULL NULL
115		OR
116	% x86disasm dis
117	_486b0708_p_x86disasm
118	%  puts "[dis cget -last_error]"
119	0
