BeIDE .prof project file format - a reverse engineering attempt
This is based on Philippe Houdoin's previous work.
Hierarchical tags format.
Tag structure:
uint32 tag
uint32 tag data size
uint8 data[tag_data_size]
(Values are big endian - always?)
'MIDE' = Metrowerks IDE top tag
uint32 = sizeof of tag data
'DPrf' = Data project file? Define Prefs?
uint32 = size of tag data
'PrEn' = Project/prefs encoding?
uint32 = size of tag data (4)
uint32 0xffffffff = ???
'PrVr' = Project/pref Version?
uint32 = size of tag data (4)
uint32 0x00000003 = ???
'Priv' = ???
uint32 = size of tag data (8)
uint32 0x00000007 = ???
uint32 0x00000000 = ???
'DAcc' = ???
uint32 = size of tag data (16 = 0x10)
uint32 0x00000006 = ???
uint32 0x00000000 = ???
uint32 0x00000005 = ???
uint32 0x00000002 = ??? (flags fields)
'SPth' = Search Paths tag (fixed tag size of 0x0108 = 264 bytes)
uint32 = size of tag data (264 = 0x108)
uint32 = Flags field ? (values seen so far: 0, 1 or 3)
uint8 = boolean ??? (local or system? precompiled/cached?)
uint8[259] = path string
'PPth' = Project paths (reuse the same tag format above, see SPth tag)
'Trgg' = Table of build "Trigger" ? Tag data is n x 140 bytes
record of bellow format:
uint32 = size of tag data (n x 140 bytes)
uint16 = build stage ? (ranging from 0-never, 1-preproc,
2-compile, 3-link, 4-resource, ?=always)
uint16 = build flags (0 ou 1 ou 4 + 2 + 1 = ?)
uint8[8] = file kind extension
uint8[64] = tool kind (gcc_link, gcc, rsrc ?)
uint8[64] = file kind mime type
'GPrf' = Global prefs ?
uint32 = size of tag data
'GenB' = Generic block ?
uint32 = size of tag data
one single generic_block
generic_block has the following structure:
uint32 = block group ID
uint32 = value size
string with zero ending = value name
uint32 = flags (1 = factory/default value?, 7 = custom ? To investigate)
uint8[value size - 4] = value
List of generic blocks groups and names found so far:
'MWPr' = Metrowerks prefs ?
name = 'AppEditorPrefs', value = binary blob with colors, booleans, flags
'cccg' = C compiler config
name = 'gccCompilerOptions', value = gcc options string
name = 'gccLanguage', value = language number ?
name = 'gccCommonWarning', value = array of uint8 booleans ?
name = 'gccWarning', value = array of uint8 booleans ?
name = 'gccCodeGeneration', value = array of uint8 booleans ?
'dlcg' = dynamic linker config
name = 'gccLinkerOptions', value = gcc linker options string
name = 'AdditionalGCCLinkerOptions', value = additions linker options string
'GNOL' = ??? (Globally needs object linking ?)
name = 'UpdateProject, value = uint32 (boolean?)
'mwcx' = Metrowerks C++ ?
name = 'ProjectPrefsx86', value = binary blob with:
uint8[9] of flags & like...
uint8[64] = output file mime type (for setmime) (usually
'application/x-vnd.Be-elfexecutable'!)
uint8[67 (!?)] = output file name
-> To investigate deeper
'RsDt' = Resource Data config
name = 'ResData', value = array of uint8 booleans ?
'mwcc' = Metrowerks C compiler
name = 'ProcessorPrefs', value = binary blob/array of booleans
name = 'XLanguagePrefs', value = binary blob/array of booleans
name = 'WarningsPrefs', value = binary blob/array of booleans
name = 'DisassemblerPrefs', value = ???
name = 'GlobalOpts', value = ???
'mwld' = Metrowerks linker
name = 'LinkerPrefs', value = few array of booleans + 3 x
uint8[64), the symbol names of the
__start, _term_routine and _init_routine routines.
name = 'PEFPrefs', value = we don't care about PEF ;-)
name = 'ProjectNamePrefs', value =
uint8[64] = Default output name string ('Application')
SUBTYPE in big endian ('????')
TYPE 'BAPP' in big endian
uint8[64] = output mime type string
(application/x-be-executable)
'ShDt' = Shell Data
name = 'ShellData', value = shell string options (usually '-noprofile')
'msan' = NASM config
name = 'NASMOptions', value = cryptic binary blob :-(
'Sect' = Section (Group section in project list)
uint32 = size of tag data (always 0x50 bytes long)
uint32 = nb items ('Link', 'PLnk', 'Fil1' or 'IgFl' tags) in this section
uint32[2] = flags ?
uint8 = ??? boolean ???
uint8[*] = Name of the section
'Link' = Link file
uint32 = size of tag data
uint32[6] = ???
One or more file (sub-)tag:
List of file sub-tags found so far:
'Mime' = value = MIME type of the file (one per parent tag)
uint32 = sizeof tag data
uint32 = size of value = size of tag data - sizeof(uint32)
uint8[size of value] = MIME type of the file
'MSFl' = Master/Main/Module? Source File (one per parent tag)
(either a library file, or a source file)
uint32 = sizeof tag data
uint32[2] = flags (to investigate)
'Name'
uint32 = sizeof 'Name' tag
uint32 = sizeof 'Name' value
uint8[size of 'Name' value] = File name (no path)
'SrFl' = Source File dependencies ([0..n] tags after the 'MSFl' tag) (mostly, headers - presents in Fil1 parent tag)
uint32 = sizeof tag data
uint32[2] = flags (to investigate)
'Name'
uint32 = sizeof 'Name' tag
uint32 = sizeof 'Name' value
uint8[size of 'Name' value] = File name (no path)
'PLnk' = Post-Link file? (e.g. resource file)
Same structure as 'Link'
'Fil1' = One build file
Same structure as 'Link'
'IgFl' = Ignored File, for file user has added to project list for easy access but is not build (e.g. local headers)
Same structure as 'Link'. Note that the next 2 following uint32 (off 6) are then set to 0xFFFF each.
'Brws' = Source browser info
uint32 = size of tag
uint8[*]
