I need to change to reference of a function in a mach-o binary to a custom function defined in my own dylib. The process I am now following is,
Replacing references to older functions to the new one. e.g _fopen to _mopen using sed.
I open the mach-o binary in MachOView to find the address of the entities I want to change. I then manually change the information in the binary using a hex editor.
Is there a way I can automate this process i.e write a program to read the symbols, and dynamic loading info and then change them in the executable. I was looking at the mach-o header files at /usr/include/mach-o but am not entire sure how to use them to get this information. Do there exist any libraries present - C or python which help do the same?
interesting question, I am trying to do something similar to static lib; see if this helps
