Loader Plug-ins

Back to Index ] [ Back to Bitsum Technologies ]

PECompact allows for use of third-party loaders. Loaders are the piece(s) of code attached to host modules that reconstructs and decodes the module at runtime.

Table of Common Loader Plug-ins:
 
Name File Description
pec2ldr_antidebug pec2ldr_antidebug.dll A loader with some anti-debug code.
pec2ldr_default pec2ldr_default.dll The default loader for PECompact.
pec2ldr_debug pec2ldr_debug.dll For use when you must load your compressed module in a debugger. Other loaders will cause the debugger to make undesired breaks.
pece2ldr_ead pec2ldr_ead.dll Enhanced anti-debug loader. For select customers who purchase a license to use this frequently updated loader plug-in that offers enhanced protection against reverse-engineering.
pec2ldr_reduced pec2ldr_reduced.dll A subset of the default loader. It does not contain code to handle import and other types of errors gracefully.
pec2ldr_trial pec2ldr_trial.dll Implements trial/evaluation version restrictions on the compressed application. [This loader not available at time of this writing]

A Loader SDK is available for purchase from Bitsum Technologies for those interested in developing their own custom PECompact loaders. For information, visit www.bitsum.com .
