Objective-C wrapper of mach_override

HTSymbolHook

HTSymbolHook is Objective-C wrapper of mach_override.
In addítion, It can override symbol by name (even non-exported!).

#Usage Tested on OS X 10.8.5 64bit with ARC.

Symbol name must contain underscore prefix. So use entire name by nm output. (e.g. specify @"_NSClassFromString" not @"NSClassFromString")

HTSymbolHook* hook=[HTSymbolHook symbolHookWithImageNameSuffix:@"/FrameworkName"];
[hook overrideSymbol:@"_symbol_name"
    withPtr:(void*)replace_function
    reentryIsland:(void**)&original_function];

If you check symbol index in advance,

UInt32 correctIndex=[hook indexOfSymbol:@"_symbol_name"];

Then It can be used as needle for speed.

UInt32 seekStartIndex=12345-20;
[hook overrideSymbol:@"_symbol_name"
    withPtr:(void*)replace_function
    reentryIsland:(void**)&original_function
    symbolIndexHint:seekStartIndex];
