What is LIEF Extended?¶
LIEF extended is an enhanced version of LIEF that contains additional features like the support of Objective-C metadata, PDB and DWARF.
Whilst the main version of LIEF is focused on (only) providing the support for ELF, PE, and Mach-O, LIEF extended aims at providing other functionalities that were not originally designed to be integrated in LIEF.
You can find the differences between both versions in this table:
