sigmatch

Modern C++ 20 Signature Match / Search Library

Features

• ? Header-only, no dependencies, no exceptions.
• ☕ Compile-time literal signature string parsing.
• ❄️ Supports full-byte wildcards (?? or **) and semi-byte wildcards (1? or *B).
• Supports blocking (chunking) and multi-threaded for fast search.
• Supports searching in the current process, external processes and files.
• ? Customizable reader and target allow you to search on more targets (e.g. network traffic packets).

? Examples

A quick example:

using namespace sigmatch_literals;

sigmatch::this_process_target target;
sigmatch::search_result result = target.in_module("**module_name**").search("1A ?? 3C ** 5* ?F"_sig);
for (const std::byte *address : result.matches()) {
    std::cout << "matched: " << address << 'n';
}

See /examples for more.

? Todo

• Complete CI for testing and documentation deployment.
• Host the documentation on GitHub Pages.
• Statistical tests coverage.
• Complete benchmarks.
• Test compilers other than MSVC.
• Implement class executable_file_target.
• Port to Linux.
