Development¶

This chapter provides a guide for developers who want to contribute to girdl.

Easier Ghidra launch¶

If you are a developer on Linux, you can use the provided ./script/ghidra.sh script to build and launch (./script/ghidra.sh -r) the extension without having to install it manually and restart Ghidra each time.

License¶

When adding new files, you can use the ./script/license.sh script to prepend all Java files without a license in the project with the correct license header. A license will only be added if the file already starts with Java’s package keyword. If some problem is detected, an error will be printed for you to investigate manually.
