This documentation explains how to install the Java binding for Unicorn from source.
-
Follow
docs/COMPILE.mdin the root directory to compile the core to thebuilddirectory.Note: by default, the Java binding native library will be built by statically linking to
../../build/libunicorn.a, thereby removinglibunicornas a runtime dependency, but making the produced native librarylibunicorn_javabigger.If you instead want to dynamically link against the installed
libunicorn, changeLIBS=../../build/libunicorn.atoLIBS=-lunicorninMakefile. -
Install a JDK for your platform.
-
Install Maven: https://maven.apache.org/install.html.
-
Change directories into the java bindings and build the Maven package:
$ mvn package
This will automatically build and test the Unicorn Java bindings.
The bindings consist of the native JNI library (libunicorn_java.{so,dylib,dll})
and the Java JAR (target/unicorn-2.xx.jar). You will need to have the native
library on java.library.path and the JAR on your classpath.
The src/main/test/java directory contains some sample code to show how to use Unicorn API.
samples is a set of sample classes showcasing the various features of the Unicorn API,
while tests is a set of JUnit tests for the API.
-
Sample_<arch>.java: These show how to access architecture-specific information for each architecture. -
Shellcode.java: This shows how to analyze a Linux shellcode. -
SampleNetworkAuditing.java: Unicorn sample for auditing network connection and file handling in shellcode.
