hi all,
i'm looking to do something stupid. can anyone tell me why it won't work? (is there some kind of special protection on EXE memory pages?)
i have an application, App1, that has a 64KB function (64KB of NOP) "void funcX(void)". App1 opens a socket to another application, App2, which is going to feed code to App1 to stick in funcX.
that is, i've got some other set of functions i plan on feeding to App1 and they're all going to look like "funcX" to App1. those functions are coming from App2, which is chewing on a bunch of var-things to spit out just the right code for App1.
now, when i try to do this, i get Random Stuff. sometimes, i just get a segfault. sometimes, it seems to work, but the memory at funcX is hosed if i do a hex-dump compared to what i received from App2. either way, it isn't doing what i want...
is there some trick here to make this work? or am i SOL?
[is there a better place to ask this question?]
thanks,
