Basic Blocks
Classes:
-
BasicBlocks–Interface for working with basic blocks in functions.
BasicBlocks(database: 'Database')
Interface for working with basic blocks in functions.
Basic blocks are sequences of instructions with a single entry point and single exit point, used for control flow analysis and optimization.
Constructs a basic block handler for the given database.
Args: database: Reference to the active IDA database.
Methods:
-
get_between–Retrieves the basic blocks within a given address range.
-
get_from_function–Retrieves the basic blocks within a given function.
-
get_instructions–Retrieves the instructions within a given basic block.
Attributes:

m_database = database
get_between(start: 'ea_t', end: 'ea_t', flags=0)
Retrieves the basic blocks within a given address range.
Args: start: The start address of the range. end: The end address of the range. flags: Optional qflow_chart_t flags for flowchart generation (default: 0).
Returns: An iterable flowchart containing the basic blocks within the specified range.
get_from_function(func: 'func_t', flags=0)
Retrieves the basic blocks within a given function.
Args: func: The function to retrieve basic blocks from. flags: Optional qflow_chart_t flags for flowchart generation (default: 0).
Returns: An iterable flowchart containing the basic blocks of the function.
get_instructions(block: 'qbasic_block_t')
Retrieves the instructions within a given basic block.
Args: block: The basic block to analyze.
Returns: An instruction iterator for the block. Returns an empty iterator if the block is invalid.
