Hi, here is an interesting (to me) dilemma I am faced with: I have a compiled third party DLL which I wish to reverse. I also have the SDK for this particular app which includes sample source code.
My feeling id the third party developer has used the sample DLL as a template and added there own methods to it.
Of course IDA cannot identify these method names as there isn't a .SIG file available. Is there any way I can use the supplied .cpp files to create a library and ultimately a signature file to help me make better sense of the disassembly listing?
PS I've searched the forum and found reference to how to do this for Delphi source but not C++. Or perhaps there is another approach I am not aware of? I hope someone can enlighten me.
Kind regards,
5aLive.
