Ghidra

Extra Install Steps

You must install using pip3 install binsync[ghidra] for the extra dependencies. After doing this, continue with installation via Script.

  • Install extra dependencies using pip3 install binsync[ghidra]
  • Continue with installation via Script
  • From the main window, go to Edit -> Plugin Path and make sure the plugin path created by BinSync is included
  • From CodeBrowser, go to Window -> Script Manager -> find binsync_plugin.py and tick the "In Tool" box in its line
  • Start BinSync in CodeBrowser via Tools -> BinSync -> Start UI

Extra Info

BinSync is written in Python 3, however, Ghidra only has a Python 2 backend. To deal with this, we use a vendored version of ghidra_bridge. We copy a BinSync stub, along with Ghidra Bridge code, into the ghidra_scripts folder, which is Python 2. Inside Ghidra, when you start BinSync, we use the Python 2 side to start the Python 3 GUI in another thread. We use Ghidra Bridge to make change requests to the Ghidra UI.
