Is there a tool for reading Mac OS X binaries that would print information about relocation tables and symbol offsets similar to this readelf
output?
readelf -r app
Relocation section '.rel.dyn' at offset 0x5ec contains 2 entries:
Offset Info Type Sym.Value Sym. Name
08049d58 00001706 R_386_GLOB_DAT 00000000 __gmon_start__
08049d60 00000305 R_386_COPY 08049d60 _ZSt4cout
Relocation section '.rel.plt' at offset 0x5fc contains 13 entries:
Offset Info Type Sym.Value Sym. Name
08049d24 00000107 R_386_JUMP_SLOT 0804868c print

In this example, print
is a function loaded from a shared library (I wrote) at runtime. readelf
is able to display information about its location inside the app
binary.
Using Macports:
port install binutils
gobjdump -p /path/to/app
Using Homebrew:
brew update && brew install binutils
/usr/local/path/to/gobjdump -p /path/to/app
# or follow instructions to add it to your PATHThere are, of course, many other command-line options. Note that the binutils port cautions that installing it may cause other ports to fail to build. Having it around to port install/look at something/port uninstall can still be handy.
It's rather amazing that there isn't already some native tool to do this.
