ida_shims.py: undefined function PLUGIN_ENTRY about ida

[fuzzywalls]

The plug-ins should be installed with the provided install script instead of a manual copy. This error is seen because the installer will place that file in a directory called shims, which prevents Ida from treating it like a plug-in and popping that error.

when i try install.py, this show up :(

The .cisco file it is failing to copy is not part of our repo. Might be worth checking out a fresh repo and trying again or removing the .cisco directory/file.

there is no such .cisco dir, and i just run your install.py. Does install.py work for you?

[fuzzywalls]

Yes, it works for me. Are you showing hidden files and directories as well?

[fuzzywalls]

@pureGavin I updated the install script to not die when it encounters files/directories it doesn't expect. Can you update and give it a try?

only try IDA7.5 and IDA6.8; it's work for IDA6.8 but not for IDA7.5

do you have any plan about mipsrop for IDA7.5?

[fuzzywalls]

Thats weird....we have IDA7.5 and it works. We are on Linux and based on your file paths I assume you're on Windows. What type of failures are you seeing?

[pureGavin]

this show up when i execute mipsrop.py, and nothing show up when i execute ida_shims.py

should i send you my IDA7.5 cause it's windows version, and i pay nothing to hexray :p

[fuzzywalls]

Haha no thanks, I try to avoid Windows as much as possible. I think your failures are from a previously broken install. The directory structure in the plugins directory should be filled with a bunch of .so files for me probably .lib for you and the python plugins. There should be a shims directory in there as well which should contain ida_shims.py and an init.py file. Add the init.py if it doesnt exist, its an empty file, and remove any extra ida_shims.py files that aren't in the shims file. You can also try to run the install script with the -d flag to uninstall the plugins and then try reinstalling. Also, if you didnt run the installer against both IDA installations you'll need to do that as well.
