Check the latest changes in the Hex-Rays documentation, including new tutorials and manuals, along with significant revisions to existing content.
We've refined the experience for the IDC Reference documentation. Starting now, you can explore it just like the IDAPython and C++ SDK references. To improve searchability and usability, we've moved the IDC function lists to a dedicated site. Meanwhile, conceptual documentation, such as core concepts, remains under the Developer Guide.
We updated our Admin Guide with a step-by-step tutorial on how to configure the license server on WSL, making it easier for Windows users to set up and manage the Hex-Rays server for floating licenses.
The local Linux Debugger and WinDbg Debugger tutorials have been revamped for clarity and updated.
A brand-new WinDbg Time Travel Debugging (TTD) tutorial has been added, covering installation, setup and essential commands.
The -Olicense
command line switch is now documented as a part of the .
We've introduced a Floating Licenses User Guide, that explains core concepts such as seats allocation, checking out, and borrowing licenses.
With the recent changes to our API that came into life with SP1 for IDA 9.0, we updated Porting Guides for IDAPython and C++ SDK.
We updated the UI layout of IDAPython Reference Documentation and improve cross-referencing.
To reflect the current state of Local Types window as a one hub to all types-related operations, we updated the Subviews.
With IDA 9.0, we changed how the Hex-Rays documentation is organized and added new guides and tutorials to kickstart your IDA journey and ease the migration from previous IDA versions.
Our docs are divided into three main categories:
User Guide, dedicated to individual users and covering whole IDA products (including add-ons, like Teams and Lumina). Most of the documentation regarding IDA, like manuals or tutorials, is currently accessible under the User Guide.
Developer Guide, which focuses on developer's needs, covers the reference and contextual documentation for IDAPython API and C++ SDK, as well as native IDC language. This part is mainly dedicated to plugin authors and devs interested in enhancing basic IDA capabilities with our development kit or scripting.
Admin Guide mainly focuses on administrators installing and managing servers for Teams and Lumina or floating licenses.
In Archive, we gathered docs with rather historical value that some of you may still find interesting but focused on previous versions of IDA.
We prepared a Getting Started section for IDA newbies and also gathered additional materials to help you find your way around our IDAPython API or IDA SDK.
For those familiar with previous versions of IDA, we prepared Porting Guides for IDAPython and C++ SDK. If you use the Flexera server for floating licenses, check our Migration Guide for new Hex-Rays license server.
We added installation and setup guides for IDA Feeds plugin and idalib.
With the new or reworked IDAPython examples that were added to our examples library, we revamped the examples categories to make the navigation among them more intuitive. Take a look at the new category for samples that utilize our updated Types endpoints.
