1.8 Alpha 4

Changes:

• Allow assigning labels to a variable and referencing the label in other variables or through scripting
• Added debug.updateVariable() and debug.variableAddress() scripting functions for accessing labeled variables
• Add cancellation to address searches
• Refine table selection when inserting/removing rows
• Fix table not becoming first responder when one variable is found
• Improve filtering correctness of VM regions for address searches

Discussion for 1.8 alphas

1.8 Alpha 3

Changes:

• Fix bug with address searches where variable addresses were sometimes not fully evaluated
• Add address searching for |offset| ≤ MaxOffset which enables finding negative offsets
• Add advanced address search filter options in advanced settings popover
• Decrease control size for advanced popover options
• Fix issue where hex expressions were sometimes not evaluated in specific fields
• Fix crash when ignoring data alignment for address searches
• Increase minimum search document window size slightly
• Move less than operator before greater than operator in operator popup button
• Add menu item and shortcut in View menu to toggle between the search type (value vs address)
• Improve next key views between search field and search options

1.8 Alpha 2

Changes:

• Optimize address/pointer scanner
• Fix integer overflow issue with narrowing indirect results by value
• Fix tooltips and annotation/relativization issues in some cases

1.8 Alpha 1

Changes:

• Add address/pointers scanner to searching to find pointers using static base addresses. After you scan for a value, you can change the search type to 'address' and adjust the levels and offset. More info may be posted in the Issues.
• Add alternate option to watch write/read accesses to base address of variable if option is held down
• Add 'Copy Raw Address' option to copy raw address without the expression used to evaluate it
• Fix issue where sometimes variables would not be relativized in a search document
• Use base() for relativizing variables even if the target is old and doesn't use ASLR
• Allow using symbol() in variable address formula
• Fix python scripts not opening in IDLE correctly
• Reduce variable annotation work when searches are progressing and better coalesce intermediate progress results
• Enable memory viewer data inspector by default
• Updated minimum macOS supported version to 10.14.6. 1.8 may require 10.15 in the future, though

1.7.13 Alpha 1

• Allow using symbol() in variable address formula
• Fix python scripts not opening in IDLE correctly
• Reduce variable annotation work when searches are progressing
• Enable memory viewer data inspector by default
• Update dynamic variables addresses when narrow searching
• Update compatibility with building project on Sonoma
• Updated minimum macOS supported version to 10.14.6

1.7.12

• Added code injection support for native arm64 targets
• Infer default disassembler mode for Rosetta translated targets
• Allow changing interpreted disassembler mode in Debugger
• Fix logic with overwriting instructions that have a breakpoint set on arm64
• Added option to store all values after performing searches (via option clicking store values button or through new menu item option)
• Fix font color for new Script variable descriptions in dark mode
• Fix runtime issue from decoding document incorrectly
• Updated minimum macOS supported version to 10.13

1.7.12 Alpha 2

Changes in Alpha 2:

• Added option to store all values after performing searches (via option clicking store values button or through new menu item option)
• Improved processing of comments for code injection
• Fix issues with stepping behavior when using emulated breakpoints for code injection
• Dropped legacy public DSA key for signing app updates

Changes in Alpha 1:

• Added code injection support for native arm64 targets
• Infer default disassembler mode for Rosetta translated targets
• Allow changing interpreted disassembler mode in Debugger
• Fix logic with overwriting instructions that have a breakpoint set on arm64
• Fix runtime warning from decoding annotated key with incorrect type
• Updated minimum macOS supported version to 10.13

1.7.12 Alpha 1

• Added code injection support for native arm64 targets
• Infer default disassembler mode for Rosetta translated targets
• Allow changing interpreted disassembler mode in Debugger
• Fix logic with overwriting instructions that have a breakpoint set on arm64
• Fix runtime warning from decoding annotated key with incorrect type
• Updated minimum macOS supported version to 10.13

1.7.11

• Added watching variable accesses, overwriting instructions, and setting breakpoints support for Apple Silicon Macs
• Added advanced option to search for memory shared across applications, which is disabled by default
• Fixed potential crash when reading a large memory region
• Fixed potential crash when dyld image in memory cannot be found during searches
• Fixed potential crash in the symbolicator during searches
• Fixed vm.base() scripting function not working when called a second time
• Fixed memory leak when scanning for binary image file paths during searches
• Improved performance of retrieving binary image paths during searches
• Improved performance of searching memory by caching VM pages instead of larger regions
• Updated debugger toolbar icons

1.7.11 Alpha 4

• Add advanced option to search for shared memory from other processes, which is disabled by default
• Fix several thread race conditions / potential crashes during memory scans
