Hello list,
I was wondering if anyone could suggest a package or means to look
at any or all of the information from a given executable binary file:
File gives pretty much everything you want:
$ file /bin/ls
/bin/ls: ELF 32-bit LSB executable, Intel 80386, version 1 (SYSV), for
GNU/Linux 2.6.8, dynamically linked (uses shared libs), stripped
- What compiler compiled it
- What (source) language was it compiled from
If the file has debugging symbols there might be a way to retrieve
that. If not, in general I'd say it's not possible to determine how
was the file created. Some heuristics might detect some compilers
and/or languages, but probably it wouldn't work always.
- What computer architecture the file was compiled for
- How many hardware bits was the file intended for (eg. 32-bit or
64-bit encoding)
- Endianness

I don't know if it's what you want, but it's what you get. :-)
