System crash or reboot

It was discovered that some virtual machine emulation software (like Oracle VirtualBox or VMWare Workstation) may cause BSOD or computer restart when Hex Editor Neo 5.01 runs on host OS.

Affected configurations: Intel multi-core CPU (Dual Core, Core 2 Duo, Core 2 Duo Quad and probably others), OS: Windows 7 64-bit. Installed virtual machine emulation software: (VMWare Workstation, Oracle VirtualBox, probably Microsoft Hyper-V, although, it looks like a hot-fix is available from Microsoft for this bug - see MS KB article #975530)).

Steps to reproduce:

1. · Run a guest OS in virtual machine emulation software and keep it running.
2. · Launch Hex Editor Neo version 5.01 (on the host OS).
3. · Close Hex Editor Neo.
4. · There is a chance that your computer reboots, hangs, or generates BSOD 0x101 (CLOCK_WATCHDOG_TIMEOUT).

Obviously it should not be possible for Hex Editor Neo (a user-mode program that does not have any kernel-mode components) to cause this behavior: it appears there is a bug in Windows 7 64-bit kernel that causes this.

We have found the workaround that fixes this problem. Version 5.01.01 uses different system scheduler that seems to be more compatible with virtual machine emulation software.

Major update to Structure Viewer

This version has completely new Structure Viewer, with a lot of new functionality and improvements. See the What's New in Structure Viewer 5.01 topic for more information.

Parallel operations

Several operations, like Find All and Replace All, now utilize several cores or processors (if they are available), providing up to 30% performance boost. Performance boost is more noticeable in Replace All commands, especially in regular expression mode.

True parallel execution of all lengthy operations

Previous versions allowed you to execute multiple operations in parallel, but user interface was rather limited: for example, it did not allow you to finish the first operation before the second finishes. Now, all started operations are equal and are executed truly in parallel. Application user interface is not blocked. Only windows of the current document are disabled until the operation execution is completed.

Support for Intel HEX and Motorola S files

Advanced Copy & Export now allows exporting selection into Intel HEX and Motorola S formats. In addition, new commands, File » Open » Open Hex… and Edit » Insert Hex… allow the user to convert Intel HEX and Motorola S files to binary form and insert them into the Hex Editor Neo.

Additional information is displayed for several lengthy operations

For Find All, Replace All and other operations, the number of occurrences found so far is displayed on the progress dialog.

Completely rewritten Checksum module

Checksum module has undergone complete rewrite, featuring new algorithms, greatly improved performance and parallel execution. That is, when several algorithms are selected at once, Hex Editor Neo utilizes multiple cores or processors (if they are available) to execute them in parallel.

More hash algorithms are offered (the actual list depends on algorithms available through Cryptography API). More different ways to sum all values in a document or selection are offered, including signed and unsigned sums.

User interface for a Checksum module has also been improved.

Ability to copy/export the current selection

Hex Editor Neo now allows you to get the list of selected ranges into the Clipboard or directly to text file.

For example, "0D0A" will automatically be parsed as two bytes 0D and 0A when pasted in editor window in Byte grouping mode.

Full UTF-8 support

The editor now fully supports UTF-8 encoding. It can not only display text (in text pane) encoded as UTF-8, but also allows you to type encoded characters on the keyboard or paste from the Clipboard. All editor functions (such as Find, Fill etc.) correctly work with UTF-8.

Encodings support in Structure Viewer

This release also brings encodings support to the Structure Viewer. Now it uses the encoding currently selected for an editor window to parse single-byte character arrays or string.

Pasting with encoding

When you paste text to the text pane, the current editor window's encoding is now used to convert the UNICODE text (if it is present in the Clipboard).

Several bugs in Structure Viewer

Structure Viewer: more accurate progress

More accurate structure binding progress update. In addition, a progress window may switch to the marquee mode when binding complex structure with forward and backward pointers.

Structure Viewer: optimization

The execution of the assignment statement (variable = expr;) is greatly optimized. Such complex iterative structures as AVI, TGA and others will benefit from this optimization.

Structure Viewer: optimization

Structure Viewer tool window's main operations, like navigation, expanding/collapsing, scrolling and so on were optimized.

Structure Viewer: TGA

TGA file structure is updated to support run-length encoded images.

Structure Viewer: common progress

Structure Viewer now displays a single common progress when binding a structure that executes delayed binds (like PE header, for example).

Setup: invalid security descriptors

Structure Viewer: $print directive updated

$print directive now does not automatically convert its argument to string; instead it uses Structure Viewer’s data visualization engine. This allows it, for example, to respect the "Display Hex Values" setting when displaying integer values.

Structure Viewer: pointer visualization

For pointed types, not only the pointer value, but the snapshot of pointed type contents is visualized on a line (as it is for arrays and structures). In addition, a computed address is also displayed.

Structure Viewer: new javascript keyword

JavSscript code now may be specified inline with a new javascript keyword. Note that VBScript code must still be referenced with #pragma script directive.

File Compare improvements

File Compare tool window’s commands are now application-wide commands. You can put them on the toolbar or assign keyboard shortcuts to them.

Improved power management

Hex Editor Neo now prevents the computer from going to sleep (unattended) when performing lengthy operation. This of course does not prevent the user to manually sleep the computer.

Crash in Compare Files

Sometimes when "Compare Files" command was launched as Windows 7 task from the pinned application icon, it crashed after you pressed the OK button.

Several bugs in Structure Viewer

• > Incorrect scope resolution for complex array indexes.
• > Empty structures incorrectly had zero alignment, breaking any structure that referenced them.

New Setup Features

Portable Installation

Setup now offers new installation mode which can be used to make a portable copy of Hex Editor Neo. Once installed, the copy of the product may be transferred to other locations, or to other computers where it can be used without installation. In this mode setup allows the user to install the product on the removable media and network shares.

Transactional Installation

Setup now performs installation of the product as a single transaction (on supported operating systems and configurations). If anything goes wrong during installation, including software or hardware errors, computer configuration is not modified. All setup activities are part of the transaction, including modifications done to the file system and system registry.

Restart Manager Support

Now, when setup needs to replace or remove a locked file, it uses the system restart manager to find the application that has a file open. It also offers a way to gracefully restart the application in order to update the file. This new feature greatly reduces the need for system restart during setup.

Per-User Installation

In addition to the previous, "per-machine" installation mode, a new installation mode is offered. It allows the user to install the application only for himself. In this mode, setup does not modify any per-machine settings. In addition, a user does not have to have administrative rights to install the Hex Editor Neo. After the product is installed in per-user mode, it is not visible to other users of the computer, but may also be installed by them in per-user mode.

Shared Files Support

Hex Editor Neo is now capable of working with files shared with other applications. After you open a shared file, Hex Editor Neo starts watching for file's modifications. If another application makes changes to a file, Hex Editor Neo displays a Shared File Conflict Dialog, which gives you options to ignore a change, update editor's copy, and/or merge changes with local changes.

In addition, for all "update"-kind options you may instruct the editor to compare the new version with a previous one. Two file comparison algorithms provided by File Compare module are supported. Hex Editor Neo also allows you to retain older versions of a file in the editor. You may edit these old versions as any other kind of document in the editor, save your changes and so on.

Elevated privileges notification

When launched with administrative privileges (either through "Run as administrator" option or through automatic elevation in Open Volume, Open Process or Open Disk commands), application title is changed to "Hex Editor Neo (Administrator)" to notify the user that application is running with elevated privileges.

Copy&Paste bug

Data pasted from Clipboard (and previously copied/cut from Hex Editor Neo's document) could become corrupted in some situations. Fixed.

File Compare bug

For some documents File Compare (simple algorithm) produced incorrect results. Fixed.

Crash in MSIL disassembler

Hex Editor Neo may crash when trying to disassemble some complex .NET code. Fixed.

Structure Viewer's zip.h bug

A bug has been reported in the zip.h file that prevented proper recognition of ZIP archives with additional NTFS information in them.

Several reported and found bugs

Several reported and discovered bugs and inconsistencies have been fixed in this release. This also includes more items from our "suggestion queue".

Full history tree window

You can now view the entire document change history in a special window. History is represented as a tree with a node for each document change. You can quickly switch between states, get more information about each state or execute one of the purge commands. Comfortable zooming and panning features are provided by the window.

Complete rewrite of command routing and toolbar customization system

This release brings completely new version of the command routing and toolbar customization subsystem. We have greatly optimized Hex Editor Neo's startup and runtime performance and brought greater flexibility to user interface customization. Built-in and user-created layouts now not only affect tool windows, but also change commands on default toolbars and size of their buttons.

Checksums and Statistics now store per-document information

Checksums module and Statistics module now store per-document information. For example, you calculate statistics for a document, switch to another one and calculate statistics for it as well. Now, if you switch back to the first document, Statistics tool window will immediately display information it previously calculated for the first document.

Several bugs in Structure Viewer

32-bit integer types (both signed and unsigned) were incorrectly handled in big-endian mode. Note that this did not affect 32-bit signed and unsigned long types. This bug is fixed. In addition, a number of not critical bugs were found and fixed.

Decrypt function is not working

On some computers it was unable to run a Edit » Decrypt… command. This has been fixed.

Other minor bugs and suggestions

A lot of small glitches that were in our "suggestion queue" have finally found their time to be fixed in this release.

Performance improvements

This release focuses on major performance improvement in one of the core Hex Editor Neo components, responsible for working with large files. (Hex Editor Neo considers files bigger than 64 MB on 32-bit systems and bigger than 128 MB on 64-bit systems as large files).

Careful optimizations and wiser use of system resources allowed us to greatly optimize this core component. As performance of most editor functions depends on it, we have managed to improve the speed of various functions from 2x to 8x!

The most boost is displayed in "cheap" operations, like General Statistics and Pattern Statistics, moderate boost in heavier functions as Replace All and less boost in "heavy" functions like Find All, for example.

In addition, document saving performance has also been greatly improved. On some of our test platforms, file copying (File » Open command followed by File » Save As… command) works faster than in Windows Explorer!

Licensing System update

Until now, each new upgrade required our customers to re-install the license file to re-activate the product. Although this is still required for this update, the licensing system was updated to remove this limitation. All future upgrades will not invalidate the license installed for the 4.76.00.2905.

Several bugs fixed

Several reported bugs have been fixed.

Find in Files

Deadlocks and possible crashes were fixed. In addition, performance for the feature has been increased.

Explorer

Several bugs are fixed in Explorer and it is now compatible with Windows 7 Beta.

Disassembler

Version 4.72 brings support for x64 executables.

Application crash

This update fixes an application crash (which occurs in Free Edition or with "Auto Create Branches" option switched off in some circumstances).

Upgrade is strongly recommended!

Several bugs

Several bugs, including application crashes, have been fixed.

Disassembler

Version 4.71 brings support for .NET assemblies. It also features an updated disassembler view window, with support for fast navigation, selection of assembly text, column configuration and much more. It also allows you to display an assembly listing in AT&T format.

Disassembler has an improved quality of the assembly listing. Module imports are now also analyzed and displayed, in addition to symbols.

Structure Viewer

The most of the new functionality is within the Structure Viewer module again. It now understands new built-in types, statements and directives. It also supports variables, constant and variable arrays and expression evaluation with dynamic type inferring.

This release eliminates most of previously imposed limits on structure size, array size etc. The Structure Viewer Tool Window has been updated to easily handle billions of items with very fast and clean navigation. Commands like Expand All and Collapse All will take less than a second expanding/collapsing a structure with a billion of items. If you bind a complex structure to a huge file (for example, AVI), you can estimate the editor to easily carry the job without running out of memory.

A number of handy features, such as Synchronize Position (which works "both sides" - from structure to document and from document to structure), Mouse over field tracking (which highlights a field under the mouse cursor) greatly simplify the file structure analysis.

Structure definitions may extend their functionality by referring to functions written in JavaScript or VBScript. These functions have access to the underlying parser and document, thanks to the IFileDocument and IParser interfaces, exposed to them by the Hex Editor Neo.

The overall compilation and binding performance has been greatly improved. More information about the new functionality provided by the Structure Viewer is found in the included documentation.

Copy&Export

The Advanced Copy & Export module now follows the model offered by the editor window. It now allows you to execute the Copy and Export commands with no selection present. In this case, a cell under the cursor is copied/exported.

The current byte order is now taken into account when performing copy or export functions.

It also offers an option to configure the number of digits to be exported for floating-point and double precision floating-point types.

Refresh View Command

When working with logical or physical disks, process or physical memory, this command allows you to refresh the editor window to display any possible changes to the underlying data, performed by some other application or operating system.

/s Command-Line Parameter

When launched with "/s" command-line parameter, Hex Editor Neo forwards the list of files to open to an already running instance, if there is one.

"Display cursor address on the left" option

Several customers complained about the address of the cursor location being displayed at the start of the line. Now this functionality can be switched off.

Reverse sorting on Statistics columns

Statistics window now allows you to sort columns in both ascending and descending order in its table mode.

New IFileDocument methods to be called from scripts

A previously introduced ISequence object was called to make it possible to call methods of the IFileDocument interface from scripting languages (such as JavaScript and VBScript). Although, our tests has shown, that in some cases it is still impossible for a script to call one or another method due to the limitations in the Automation model and the way scripting engines are implemented.

This release finally resolves the problem by providing a special variant of each affected method. Every such variant may be easily called from the scripting languages.

Go to in Process

Go to in Process command now interactively updates the cursor position when you click on the image sections or modules (without closing the Go to window).

UI Sugar

You can now make any tool window appear as a tabbed document. That means that the tool window will not be dockable to one of the four sides of the main window anymore, nor it will float over the main window, but instead will be placed where all editor windows reside. You may then take advantage of the Editor Window Placement feature to position a tool window.

Each tool window now also memorizes its floating position separately of its parent frame.

Ctrl+Mouse Wheel now quickly changes the font size in an editor window. This is a quick way to change a font size without using the Layouts dialog.

Purge All History and Load History commands

These commands did not work properly in Free Edition mode.

Copy&Paste bugs

Several bugs with copying and pasting document data have been found and fixed. This may include several application crashes.

A lot of minor bugs

Quite a few of minor bugs or inconsistencies were found and fixed throughout the product.

Shell context menu item bug

Hex Editor Neo's shell shortcut menu's item "Edit with Hex Editor Neo" is incompatible with some non-standard shells or file managers (like GPSoftware's Directory Opus 9). Fixed.

New Scripting Object

New Sequence Object provides scripting languages (such as JavaScript and VBScript) a way to build a pattern and pass it to File Document Object methods that require a pattern.

Structure Viewer

Structure Viewer now supports a sophisticated structure definition language with expression evaluation, pointers and bit fields, case unions and assertions, constants and enumerations and much much more. A full featured C99-compliant preprocessor (with full support for macros and conditional compilation) is run before a source file is compiled.

In addition to the ability to bind a structure to an absolute or relative address or to a cursor position, a structure may now be bound to an expression. This expression may reference constants and enumerations declared on the global source file scope or even reference previously bound structures.

You can find more information in corresponding documentation section.

Severe bug with document saving

Large documents may get corrupted after modifications are saved in the Hex Editor Neo. This release fixes this bug.

Upgrade is strongly recommended!

Find in Files

Find in Files feature updates its behavior for the "Find all occurrences" mode. Now located documents are not automatically opened in the editor, thus saving system resources when doing large searches.

Located documents may be opened by double-clicking them in the list or using the Find in Files » Open File command. When you open a document this way, all pattern occurrences are selected in it.

Bookmarks

Next Bookmark and Previous Bookmark commands caused the view to lose focus. Fixed.

Disassembler

A disassembler module has been carefully redesigned. It now allows you to have several views opened for the same document, each displaying different parts of it. It also works smoother and faster and fixes a number of bugs.

Base Converter

A number of bugs in Base Converter module have been fixed.

Disassembler

Hex Editor now includes a disassembler module. The current implementation is capable of disassembling 32-bit x86 code, including support for FPO, MMX, SSE, SSE2 and 3DNow! instruction sets. Disassembler automatically searches for symbol files and uses the information from them to increase the assembly output readability. The Disassembler View may be connected to ordinary editor window which provides you with another handy data viewing and manipulation tool. The disassembler module works with files and processes' memory and is even automatically updated when you modify the document.

Regular Expressions

Find, Find All, Replace, Replace All, Find in Files, Replace in Files, Pattern Coloring and Pattern Statistics commands and modules now fully support regular expressions. ECMAScript-compatible implementation of regular expressions provide you with extreme power ever found in binary editors. Very efficient implementation of "bulk" commands (Find All, Replace All, Find in Files and Replace in Files) combined with unique features of Hex Editor's multiple selection feature, together form an invaluable editing tool. A concept of named regular expression classes even allows you to define recursive grammars.

Window Switching

Hex Editor now provides fast and convenient tool that can be used to instantly activate any visible tool window or editor window. When you press Ctrl + Tab or Ctrl + Shift + Tab (user configurable), a navigation window is displayed. It provides the list of visible tool windows and all opened editor windows for you to activate.

Code Pane

Hex Editor now provides you with a method to completely hide a code pane, leaving only the text pane visible. Combined with the auto columns mode, it is a powerful tool to edit text or binary-text data.

Default Layouts (Three Different Ones)

When you run the Hex Editor for the first time, you are provided with a choice of default working layout. You can choose between a "Novice User Layout", "Advanced User Layout" and "Expert User Layout". You can later change the chosen layout or make your own.

Major performance boost

This release introduces a number of major performance optimizations that affect most Hex Editor functions. In general, the following performance boost is estimated:

• Fill, Delete, Cut and Paste - when they operate over a multiple selection - have up to 3x performance boost.
• Find All, File Compare, Selection Loading - up to 10% performance boost.
• Replace All - from 1.5x to 2x performance boost.

Similar numbers refer to Find in Files and Replace in Files functions.

Several bugs

A fair number of reported bugs have been fixed.

Application-Wide Byte Order Support

Hex Editor Neo now fully supports both little-endian and big-endian byte orders. Different byte order can be set separately for each editor window and there is an option that controls whether floating-point types are affected by byte order change. Byte order change commands have been removed from Data Inspector and Structure Viewer modules, as they now respect the byte order configured for a window.

Modify Bits Command

New Modify Bits command allows you to see a visual binary representation of the number and modify individual bits.

Copy and Cut Work Without Selection

Copy and Cut commands can now be used when there is no selection in the current editor window. In this case, only the cell under the cursor is copied/cut into the Clipboard.

Performance optimizations

A number of various performance optimizations have been done.

Find Streams

Find Streams feature allows you to locate all NTFS alternate data streams on your computer.

Performance optimizations

This release has undergone several performance optimizations resulted in significant speed-ups in the following commands and features:

• * A special image cache speeds up application loading time. This special cache stores pre-rendered vector images (which are used throughout the Hex Editor) to significantly reduce the application startup time, which was very small even before this cache was implemented!
• * A numer of algorithm improvements allowed several editing functions to operate much faster and consume much less RAM. This include typing, inserting and deleting (with complex multiple selection).
• * Several improvements were made to the Find in Files feature, leading to much less memory consumption by this function.
• * File saving algorithms undergone several optimizations leading to smoother and faster saving.

Find in Files

Find in Files is now capable of searching (and replacing) a pattern in file's named streams.

File Attributes

File Attributes window now displays the total number of file's named streams, their size and the total size the file occupies on disk.

Several bugs

A number of reported bugs (including application crashes) have been fixed.

Saving bugs

Several bugs related to document saving have been fixed.

Built-In Explorer

Hex Editor now has two Windows Explorer-like windows as part of its user interface. They can be used to perform usual file and folder operations and also tightly coupled with Hex Editor. For example, you can open files in the editor by double-clicking them in the Explorer window simply dragging them to the editor's window.

Encodings

Hex Editor is now capable of displaying text in the text pane according to a selected encoding. More than 130 different encodings are supported (subject to installed code page files and fonts). When the cursor is in the text pane, typed characters are also converted using the selected encoding. Encoding can be set separately for each editor window. Different ANSI, UNICODE, ISO, OEM, MAC, EBCDIC and country-specific encodings are supported.

Checksum Calculation

Hex Editor supports 16 checksum calculation algorithms, including MD5, SHA-1, CRC-16, CRC-32 and others. Custom CRC algorithm is also provided. You can compute the checksum for the whole file or for the current (multiple) selection. Several checksums may be computed at the same time. Results are easily exportable and copyable to the Clipboard.

Advanced Copy & Export

Selected document data may now be converted into a number of supported text formats and placed into the Clipboard or exported to a file. Space-separated or comma-separated numbers, raw text with selected encoding, programming language array declaration, Base64, UUencode and Quoted-Printable are among supported formats.

Pasting Text

Text may now be pasted into the editor. Depending on the active pane, the text is either pasted "as is" (if the text pane is active), or parsed as a sequence of hexadecimal or decimal integers (if the code pane is active).

Data Inspector

Data Inspector tool window adds support for little endian and big endian byte order, as well as adds FILETIME, time_t, DOSTIME and DOSDATE fields.
