When running a remote debugger to a linux server, is there a way to get IDA (7.0) to properly handle strings? When I go to the pseudocode view, I get things like this;
v7 = sub_804AD60((std::string *)&v16);
char *v5;
So clearly IDA has some handling of string types, and it's able to infer that one of these is a C++ string and the other a pointer to a C string. What I can't figure out is how to get that string? I've been searching for a locals window or something in the debugger with no luck, and hovering over v16 gets an int v16 with a memory address value. Surely there's some way to just get the actual string value of v16 or v5 in plain old ASCII or UTF-8 without having to dig it out of the hex view?
v5you should be shown the value, but for something like astd::stringit depends. I have IDA, but not the HexRays plugin, so I can't be of much help here.Hello World\0, should be somehow visible to me, and yet I can't find a way.
