Inherited from object: __class__

Method Details [hide private]

__init__(self)
(Constructor)

source code 

x.__init__(...) initializes x; see x.__class__.__doc__ for signature

Overrides: object.__init__
(inherited documentation)

__initialize_snapshot(self)

source code 

Private method to automatically initialize the snapshot when you try to use it without calling any of the scan_* methods first. You don't need to call this yourself.

__contains__(self, anObject)
(In operator)

source code 
Parameters:
  • anObject (Thread, int) -
    • int: Global ID of the thread to look for.
    • Thread: Thread object to look for.
Returns: bool
True if the snapshot contains a Thread object with the same ID.

__iter__(self)

source code 
Returns: dictionary-valueiterator
Iterator of Thread objects in this snapshot.

See Also: iter_threads

__len__(self)
(Length operator)

source code 
Returns: int
Count of Thread objects in this snapshot.

See Also: get_thread_count

has_thread(self, dwThreadId)

source code 
Parameters:
  • dwThreadId (int) - Global ID of the thread to look for.
Returns: bool
True if the snapshot contains a Thread object with the given global ID.

get_thread(self, dwThreadId)

source code 
Parameters:
  • dwThreadId (int) - Global ID of the thread to look for.
Returns: Thread
Thread object with the given global ID.

iter_thread_ids(self)

source code 
Returns: dictionary-keyiterator
Iterator of global thread IDs in this snapshot.

See Also: iter_threads

iter_threads(self)

source code 
Returns: dictionary-valueiterator
Iterator of Thread objects in this snapshot.

See Also: iter_thread_ids

get_thread_ids(self)

source code 
Returns: list( int )
List of global thread IDs in this snapshot.

get_thread_count(self)

source code 
Returns: int
Count of Thread objects in this snapshot.

find_threads_by_name(self, name, bExactMatch=True)

source code 

Find threads by name, using different search methods.

Parameters:
  • name (str, None) - Name to look for. Use None to find nameless threads.
  • bExactMatch (bool) - True if the name must be exactly as given, False if the name can be loosely matched.

    This parameter is ignored when name is None.

Returns: list( Thread )
All threads matching the given name.

start_thread(self, lpStartAddress, lpParameter=0, bSuspended=False)

source code 

Remotely creates a new thread in the process.

Parameters:
  • lpStartAddress (int) - Start address for the new thread.
  • lpParameter (int) - Optional argument for the new thread.
  • bSuspended (bool) - True if the new thread should be suspended. In that case use Thread.resume to start execution.

notify_create_process(self, event)

source code 

Notify the creation of the main thread of this process.

This is done automatically by the Debug class, you shouldn't need to call it yourself.

Parameters:

notify_create_thread(self, event)

source code 

Notify the creation of a new thread in this process.

This is done automatically by the Debug class, you shouldn't need to call it yourself.

Parameters:

notify_exit_thread(self, event)

source code 

Notify the termination of a thread.

This is done automatically by the Debug class, you shouldn't need to call it yourself.

Parameters:
