Cli Usage

Parameter Short Form Arguments Description
--verbose -v Set output to verbose messages.
--name -n <name> Output assembly name
--assembly-version -a <n>[.n[.n]] Output assembly version
--game-assembly -g <path> Path to GameAssembly.dll
--metadata -m <path> Path to global-metadata.dat
--include -i <type>[,..type] List of type names to include in the output
--out-path -o <path> Output file path
--warnings-as-errors -w Treat warnings as errors
--target -t <Target>[,..Target] List of compile targets.

Example

The following command will load the game metadata from the provided paths and process UnityEngine.GameObject, Sample.App.GlobalState, and all (supported) referenced type dependencies. These types will be exported using the NetCore target to generate a DLL with assembly name Sample, 1.1.0 as Sample.dll in the current working directory:

Il2CppToolkit.ReverseCompiler.Cli.exe  --game-assembly "%AppData%\Sample\GameAssembly.dll" --metadata "%AppData%\Sample_Data\metadata\global-metadata.dat" --include UnityEngine.GameObject,Sample.App.GlobalState --target NetCore --name Sample --assembly-version 1.1.0 --out-path .\Sample.dll

API Usage

To dynamically generate an assembly at runtime, use the classes provided in the Il2CppToolkit.ReverseCompiler namespace to construct and execute your desired compilation. First, a Loader must be constructed and initialized with your GameAssembly and GlobalMetadata paths:

Loader loader = new();
loader.Init(gasmPath, metadataPath);

Next, a type model must be constructed with the loader to provide to the compiler:

TypeModel model = new(loader);
Compiler compiler = new(model);

Lastly, add the desired targets, and assign your configuration values. Each input value supported by the targets is provided in an ArtifactSpecs static class (either in the shared library, or in the target's if it is target-specific). These specs can be used to construct and provide a value to the compiler.

compiler.AddTarget(new NetCoreTarget());
compiler.AddConfiguration(
    ArtifactSpecs.TypeSelectors.MakeValue(new List<Func<TypeDescriptor, bool>>{
        {td => td.Name.StartsWith("UnityEngine.")}, // extract all types in the UnityEngine namespace
        {td => td.Name == "Sample.App.GlobalState"}, // extract Sample.App.GlobalState
    }),
    ArtifactSpecs.AssemblyName.MakeValue(outputAssemblyName),
    ArtifactSpecs.AssemblyVersion.MakeValue(currentInteropVersion),
    ArtifactSpecs.OutputPath.MakeValue(dllPath)
);

For a more advanced API example, see SampleLoader.cs for a well-structured approach to loading and regenerating assemblies during runtime within the current process, allowing for dynamic updates without shipping a new version of your application/library.
