add(
address: ea_t,
name: str,
ordinal: Optional[int] = None,
make_code: bool = True,
) -> bool
Add a new entry point.
Args: address: Linear address of the entry point name: Name for the entry point ordinal: Ordinal number (if None, uses address as ordinal) make_code: Whether to convert bytes to instructions
Returns: bool: True if successful
exists(ordinal: int) -> bool
Check if an entry point with the given ordinal exists.
Args: ordinal: Ordinal number to check
Returns: bool: True if entry point exists
get_addresses() -> Iterator[ea_t]
Get all entry point addresses.
Yields: int: Each entry point address
get_all() -> Iterator[EntryInfo]
Get all entry points.
Yields: Entry: Each entry point in the program
get_at_index(index: int) -> EntryInfo
Get entry point by its index in the entry table.
Args: index: Internal index (0 to get_count()-1)
Returns: Entry: The entry point at the specified index
Raises: IndexError: If index is out of range
get_by_address(address: ea_t) -> EntryInfo | None
Get entry point by its address.
Args: address: Linear address to search for
Returns: Entry: The entry point at the specified address, or None if not found
get_by_name(name: str) -> EntryInfo | None
Find entry point by name.
Args: name: Name to search for
Returns: Entry: The entry point with the specified name, or None if not found
get_by_ordinal(ordinal: int) -> EntryInfo | None
Get entry point by its ordinal number.
Args: ordinal: Ordinal number of the entry point
Returns: Entry: The entry point with the specified ordinal, or None if not found
get_count() -> int
Get the total number of entry points.
Returns: int: Number of entry points in the program
get_forwarders() -> Iterator[ForwarderInfo]
Get all entry points that have forwarders.
Yields: ForwarderInfo: Information about each entry with a forwarder
get_names() -> Iterator[str]
Get all entry point names.
Yields: str: Each entry point name
get_ordinals() -> Iterator[int]
Get all ordinal numbers.
Yields: int: Each ordinal number
rename(ordinal: int, new_name: str) -> bool
Rename an existing entry point.
Args: ordinal: Ordinal number of the entry point new_name: New name for the entry point
Returns: bool: True if successful
set_forwarder(ordinal: int, forwarder_name: str) -> bool
Set forwarder name for an entry point.
Args: ordinal: Ordinal number of the entry point forwarder_name: Forwarder name to set
Returns: bool: True if successful
