السلام عليكم .
موضوع شيق لـ Daniel Pistelli يأخذك فيه الى اعماق Qt .
اقتباسIntroduction
Half of the text of this article comes from my larger paper "Dynamic C++ Proposal". I decided that it was useful to take the part about Qt internals, put it into another article and extend it by adding a reversing part. Because of its nature, this is not the usual kind of article I write. In fact, I wrote the reversing part in less than a day. So, this is a very easy one. However, I think it is useful for people who need to reverse a Qt application and certainly wouldn't consider reading my other paper about Dynamic C++, which doesn't sound like a paper about Qt and, in fact, isn't a paper about Qt: the paragraph about Qt is only one among many others. Moreover, I haven't seen serious articles about this subject.
The first thing which needs to be considered when reversing Qt applications is what Qt brought to the C++ language. Events (inside the Qt framework) are just virtual functions, so nothing new there. This is not a C++ reversing guide. What is new in Qt are signals and slots, which rely on the dynamism of the Qt framework.
So, first thing I'm going to show how this dynamism works. The second part focus on reversing and, at that point, I will show how to obtain all the metadata one needs when disassembling a "Q_OBJECT" class.
