OK so I figured out what I was doing wrong when trying to reduce the size of the binary. I still had the other ARCH flags included in Preprocessor setting in Visual Studio. After removing them the binary reduced in size.

OK so I successfully compiled and built my KMDF driver using the capstone_static_winkernel project however the file size of the .sys file is too big. I need help reducing the size of the capstone_static_winkernel.lib file to something much smaller. I've tried the following preprocessor directives CAPSTONE_X86_REDUCE and CAPSTONE_DIET implemented in the capstone_static_winkernel project. But the size of this lib file does not reduce. Please help. TIA.

OK so I managed to get GitHub package installed that installs the capstone_static_winkernel project and creates the msvc directory. But now I'm getting compile errors when compiling the capstone_static_winkernel project. Error C4013 'snprintf' undefined; assuming extern returning int capstone_static_winkernel C:\Users\XXXXX\source\repos\capstone2\cs.c 904 Error C4296 '<': expression is always false capstone_static_winkernel C:\Users\XXXXX\source\repos\capstone2\arch\ARM\ARMDisassembler.c 7008 Error...

So I've successfully installed capstone since everything appears to be there including capstone.lib however I'm missing the msvc directory and the cs_driver.sln project does not load the other project capstone_static_winkernel project because it does not exist in the install directory. Any ideas on how to get this working ? TIA

UPDATE: After doing some Googling about Macports issues, I've determined the error is erroneous and is due to my company blocking certain ports (sudo port -d selfupdate failed). So I'll have to try the install at home (like SO MANY things. :( I'm guessing the install will work. For this reason, I'm still wondering if there's a workaround where you can download an existing package for OS-X without going through macports?

I'm using OS-X Sierra. I have been unable to successfully make capstone from source (although I did succeed making Keystone from source.) . So I installed macports so I could use capstone's pre-made package, and was surprised to see only this: sudo port install capstone Error: Port capstone not found Are there any other options for getting a working Capstone on Sierra? Now that I've installed macports, I'm not so keen on also installing homebrew. Thanks for any advice. - Jeff

Hi, I'm using cstool.exe with the thumb architecture. If I use the -d switch, I get all registers touched by a command (among other output). However, if the stack pointer is touched (e.g. through PUSH and POP), it is not mentioned. I would consider this to be a bug. Regards, Gerhard

Hi all, can anyone point me to full documentation about the cstool.exe, esp. for the thumb architecture? I would like to know everything that has to be expected from the output created with the -d switch, because I would like to parse it with Perl for a small debugger utility I'm writing. Any help greatly appreciated. Regards, Gerhard
