How to load plugin?

• Click Load MAP with Shift to see options

How does one do this. I can't actually figure out how to load the plugin ? Where is this button/menu?

Don't hesitate to provide a PR if you consider the documentation lacking.

My plugin menu is missing the option. Do I need to add the dll to plugins.csv?

Which versions of IDA will this plugin run under?

6.x?
7.x?

Does it only work with PE files? I have loaded a raw h32 file from an embedded platform (infineon tricore)

Maybe try reading the descriptions, ie. around the file you've downloaded.

The source code is also available for browsing.

It says compiled for 7.0 SDK, I was not sure if this means it is backwards compatible or not though. I am not familiar with the IDA plugin formats.

I have now downloaded the older 6.2 version which appears to be loading at least but it shows this in the log:

LoadMap: Plugin v1.2 init.

LoadMap: Plugin v1.2 terminate.

I read the descriptions which say "Open any PE/LE file project" which I assume means anything other than PE is not compatible with the plugin.

Thanks

I did try to recompile the project myself, however it requires V110 which is VS2012 I believe. I tried upgrading it to V142 however that has introduced many compile errors. Do you know if there is a way to install V110 build tools without installing VS2012?

I will have a crack at adding support for non PE files if I can get the plugin to build without needing VS2012.

Can't remember - I built it years ago.
From the description, the last build was with VS. It's likely that I did tried GCC first.
