0.5.2 (2017-07-26)

  • Added a setup.py check that the user runs at least the minimal required Python version (Python 3.3). This makes pip raise a helpful error message instead of a meaningless exception.
  • Made tests for the retdec.conn module work with the latest version of responses (0.6.0).

0.5.1 (2016-09-24)

  • Emit a warning instead of an error when a call graph, control-flow graph, or archive fails to be generated. This makes the decompiler tool continue downloading all the requested outputs instead of giving up on the first failure.
  • Fixed the use of environment variable RETDEC_API_URL to override the default API URL. Previously, the URL was not overridden, even when given.

0.5 (2016-09-15)

  • Added support for decompilation of files in archives (ar format). Archives are statically linked libraries, commonly ending with .a or .lib. To decompile a file from an archive, use the bin mode and pass either the index of the file in the archive (ar_index) or its name (ar_name). New since RetDec 2.2.
  • Added a new optional parameter output_format to the fileinfo service. You can use it to obtain the output in the JSON format. New since RetDec 2.2.
  • Added support for decompilation of files in the Intel HEX format. To decompile such files, use the bin mode and pass the architecture and endianness of the machine code inside the file. New since RetDec 2.2.
  • The raw_entry_point and raw_section_vma parameters in raw decompilations no longer accept the default value. In both cases, you have to explicitly pass an address. New since RetDec 2.2.
  • The raw_endian parameter was renamed to endian. Use of the original name is still supported, but it is deprecated. New since RetDec 2.2.
  • It is no longer possible to force an architecture when decompiling a file in the bin mode. The architecture is now detected automatically from the input file. New since RetDec 2.2.
  • It is no longer required to set file_format in raw decompilations. When given, it will be ignored. New since RetDec 2.2.
  • Compiler-optimization levels can now be also specified without the leading dash (e.g. you can pass O1 instead of -O1). New since RetDec 2.2.
  • Dropped support for Python 3.2 (the requests module, which is used for HTTPS communication, no longer supports it).

0.4 (2016-08-04)

  • Added support for decompilation of raw machine code (the raw mode).
  • Added support for generating and downloading of control-flow graphs.
  • Added support for generating and downloading of a call graph.
  • Added support for selecting the format of the generated call and control-flow graphs.
  • Added support for selecting a different style for naming of variables.
  • Added support for selecting the type of optimizations to be performed by the decompiler.
  • Added support for decompilation of unreachable functions.
  • Added support for disabling the emission of addresses in the generated code.
  • Added support for selecting functions to be decompiled.
  • Added support for selecting address ranges to be decompiled.
  • Added support for choosing what should be decoded in selective decompilation.
  • Improved error messages in exceptions.

0.3 (2016-07-17)

  • Added access to warnings in decompilation phases and their emission in the decompiler tool.
  • Added obtaining of the compiled version of the input C file (provided that the input was a C file).
  • Added support for selecting the compiler to be used when compiling C source files.
  • Added support for selecting the optimizations to be used when compiling C source files.
  • Added support for selecting whether C files should be compiled with debugging information.
  • Added support for selecting whether compiled C files should be stripped.
  • Added support for printing script versions via the -V/--version parameter.

0.2 (2016-06-12)

  • Added support for passing a PDB file to decompilations.
  • Added support for selecting the target high-level language.
  • Added support for selecting the architecture.
  • Added support for selecting the file format.
  • Added a new method to the Test service: echo(). It echoes back the parameters passed via the test/echo service.
  • Added a summary of the supported parts of the retdec.com API into the documentation.
  • Decompiler.start_decompilation() and Fileinfo.start_analysis() raise MissingParameterError when the input file is not given.
  • Re-formatted the progress-log output from the decompiler tool to ensure that the [OK] parts are aligned properly.

0.1 (2015-09-13)

Initial release.
