ProduceExe

Description

Create an executable file. Enter a file name for the new executable file. Usually this command is used after patching (see actions PatchByte, PatchWord) to obtain a patched version of the file. IDA produces executable files only for:

• MS DOS .exe

• MS DOS .com

• MS DOS .drv

• MS DOS .sys

• general binary

• Intel Hex Object Format

• MOS Technology Hex Object Format

For other file formats please create a difference file (the Create DIFF file command; action ProduceDiff).

Only Change byte... and Change word... commands (see actions PatchByte, PatchWord) affect the executable file contents, other commands (including the Manual... command) will not affect the content of the disassembled file.

EXE files: Output files will have the same EXE-header and relocation table as the input file. IDA will fill unused ranges of the EXE file (e.g. between relocation table and loadable pages) with zeroes.
