Open Source C Frameworks

A free/libre toolchain for easing several low-level tasks like forensics, software reverse engineering, exploiting, and debugging. It is composed by a bunch of libraries (which are extended with plugins) and programs that can be automated with almost any programming language. It is recommended to install it from git, alternatively, you can pick the last release (every 6 weeks) from Github. Batch, Commandline, visual, and panels interactive modes. Embedded webserver with js scripting and WebUI. Assemble and disassemble a large list of CPUs. Runs on Windows and any other UNIX flavor out there. Analyze and emulate code with ESIL. Native debugger and GDB, WINDBG, QNX, and FRIDA. Navigate ASCII-art control flow graphs. Ability to patch binaries, and modify code or data. Search for patterns, magic headers, and function signatures. Easy to extend and modify. Commandline, C API, script with r2pipe in any language.

A command-line application to restore firmware files to iOS devices. The iDevice restore application is a full reimplementation of all granular steps which are performed during the restore of firmware to a device. In general, upgrades and downgrades are possible, however subject to the availability of SHSH blobs from Apple for signing the firmware files. idevicerestore requires a properly installed usbmuxd for the restore procedure. Please make sure that it is either running or configured to be started automatically as soon as a device is detected in normal and/or restore mode. If properly installed this will be handled by udev/systemd.

The GUIDOLib provides a powerful engine for the graphic rendering of music scores, based on the Guido Music Notation format. It supports Linux, Mac OS X, Windows, Android and iOS operating systems. A Java JNI interface is available as well as a Javascript version of the library. A Web API has also been designed, allowing to deploy the engine as a Web service.

SAFS is a software test automation framework supporting data-driven (aka keyword-driven) functional test automation and associated services. The framework can run stand-alone on Windows, Linux, and Mac as well as integrate the use of IBM Rational Functional Tester, IBM Rational Robot, Smart Bear/AutomatedQA Test Complete, Apple XCode UIAutomation, Android SDK Automaton, Thoughtworks Selenium, and several other tools. Among other features, it provides advanced support of language localization testing (NLS) allowing the same tests to work for many different languages or test configurations. With various different tool configurations SAFS can be used to test Java, Web/Html, Flex, .Net, WPF, Win, iOS, and Android domains natively. And with advanced Image-Based Testing support built-in SAFS can be used to test virtually anything, anywhere.

The Twitter Image Pipeline is a streamlined framework for fetching and storing images in an application. The high-level concept is that all requests to fetch or store an image go through an image pipeline which encapsulates the work of checking the in-memory caches and an on disk cache before retrieving the image from over the network as well as keeping the caches both up to date and pruned. Twitter Image Pipeline came to fruition as numerous needs rose out of Twitter for iOS use cases. The system for image loading prior to TIP was fragile and inefficient with some severe edge cases. Designing a new framework from the ground up to holistically approach the need for loading images was the best route and led to TIP.
