automating diffing process

[djn3m0]

Hi,

I'm trying to diff binary files automatically and unattended.

I tried,

ida64.exe -A -B -Sc:\Users\user\Desktop\diaphora\diaphora.py c:\Users\user\Desktop\ntos\test1.exe

But I have two issues,

1. I cannot tell when the script is done so I can go on with the next file
2. The IDA Pro UI is popping up despite having -A and -B flags

Thanks

Hey!

You need to setup some environment variables first, as pointed out here: https://github.com/joxeankoret/diaphora/wiki/How-can-I-automate-the-diffing-process%3F

If the GUI tool ida64.exe isn't working for you for some reason in batch mode, try with idat64.exe.

By the way, which IDA version are you using?
