Classes & Objects In Smali

In programming, a class is a blueprint or template for creating objects that share similar characteristics and behaviors. It defines a set of attributes (properties) and methods (functions) that the objects of that class will have.

Think of a class as a recipe for making a specific type of object, like a cookie cutter for making cookies. The class describes the shape, size, and ingredients of the cookies, as well as the steps needed to bake them. When you use the class to create an object, it's like using the cookie cutter to cut out a cookie from the dough.

Each object created from the same class will have the same properties and methods, but the specific values of those properties may be different for each object.

Example:

Class in smali

.class public MyClass
.super java/lang/Object

# Fields
.field private myField:I

# Constructor
.method public constructor <init>()V
    .registers 1
    invoke-direct {p0}, Ljava/lang/Object;-><init>()V
    return-void
.end method

# Methods
.method public setMyField(I)V
    .registers 2
    .param p1, "value"    # the value to set myField to
    iput p1, p0, LMyClass;->myField:I
    return-void
.end method

.method public getMyField()I
    .registers 1
    iget p0, LMyClass;->myField:I
    return p0
.end method

In this example, we define a class called

MyClass

that extends the

java/lang/Object

class (which is the base class for all objects in Java/Smali). The class has a single field called

myField

of type

int

, a constructor that calls the superclass constructor, and two methods,

setMyField

and

getMyField

, that respectively set and retrieve the value of

myField

Object in smali

# Allocate memory for the object
# Getting referance of MyClass and store on v0
new-instance v0, Llab.seczone64/MyClass;

# Invoke the constructor of the class and creating object
invoke-direct {v0}, lab.seczone64/MyClass;->init

# Set the value of the myField field to 42
const/16 v1, 42
iput v1, v0, lab.seczone64/MyClass;->myField:I

In this example, we allocate memory for the object of

MyClass

and store it in register

. We then invoke the constructor of

MyClass

using the

invoke-direct

instruction, passing

as the

this

parameter. Finally, we set the value of the

myField

field to

using the

iput

instruction.

Calling an method in class

Consider this example. We have an Interface named

Human

and a class with name

Person

which implement that interface.

package lab.seczone64.classedandobjectsinsmali.models;

import lab.seczone64.classedandobjectsinsmali.interfaces.Human;

public class Person implements Human {
    private String name;
    private int age;
    private String gender;

    public Person(String name, int age, String gender) {
        this.name = name;
        this.age = age;
        this.gender = gender;
    }

    @Override
    public String getName() {
        return name;
    }

    @Override
    public void setName(String name) {
        this.name = name;
    }

    @Override
    public int getAge() {
        return age;
    }

    @Override
    public void setAge(int age) {
        this.age = age;
    }

    @Override
    public String getGender() {
        return gender;
    }

    @Override
    public void setGender(String gender) {
        this.gender = gender;
    }

    @Override
    public void eat(String food) {
        System.out.println(name + " is eating " + food);
    }

    @Override
    public void sleep(int hours) {
        System.out.println(name + " is sleeping for " + hours + " hours");
    }

    @Override
    public void talk(String message) {
        System.out.println(name + " says: " + message);
    }
}

For create

Person

object and calling methods:

.method protected onCreate(Landroid/os/Bundle;)V
    .locals 4
    .param p1, "savedInstanceState"    # Landroid/os/Bundle;

    .line 14
    invoke-super {p0, p1}, Landroidx/appcompat/app/AppCompatActivity;->onCreate(Landroid/os/Bundle;)V

    .line 15
    sget v0, Llab/seczone64/classedandobjectsinsmali/R$layout;->activity_main:I

    invoke-virtual {p0, v0}, Llab/seczone64/classedandobjectsinsmali/MainActivity;->setContentView(I)V

    .line 17
    new-instance v0, Llab/seczone64/classedandobjectsinsmali/models/Person;

    const/16 v1, 0x1a

    const-string v2, "male"

    const-string v3, "Mohammad Hossein Ashofte Yazdi"

    invoke-direct {v0, v3, v1, v2}, Llab/seczone64/classedandobjectsinsmali/models/Person;-><init>(Ljava/lang/String;ILjava/lang/String;)V

    .line 23
    .local v0, "mHossein":Llab/seczone64/classedandobjectsinsmali/models/Person;
    const-string v1, "Pizza"

    invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Llab/seczone64/classedandobjectsinsmali/models/Person;->eat(Ljava/lang/String;)V

    .line 24
    const/4 v1, 0x6

    invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Llab/seczone64/classedandobjectsinsmali/models/Person;->sleep(I)V

    .line 25
    const-string v1, "Hi there."

    invoke-virtual {v0, v1}, Llab/seczone64/classedandobjectsinsmali/models/Person;->talk(Ljava/lang/String;)V

    .line 26
    return-void
.end method

Static Method

In Java, a static method is a method that belongs to a class rather than an instance of the class. This means you can call the method using the class name, without needing to create an object of the class.

How to define static method in

smali

.class public final LMathUtils;
.super Ljava/lang/Object;

.method public static add(II)I
    .registers 3
    .param p0, "a"    # I
    .param p1, "b"    # I

    add-int/2addr v0, p0
    add-int/2addr v0, p1

    return v0
.end method

You can this method like this:

.class public LMain;
.super Ljava/lang/Object;

.method public static main([Ljava/lang/String;)V
    .registers 3

    const/4 v0, 2
    const/4 v1, 3

    invokestatic {v0, v1}, LMathUtils;->add(II)I

    move-result v0

    sget-object v1, Ljava/lang/System;->out:Ljava/io/PrintStream;
    invoke-virtual {v1, v0}, Ljava/io/PrintStream;->println(I)V

    return-void
.end method

Casting Integer To String

.method public myMethod(I)V
    .registers 3

    # Convert the integer to a string
    const-string v1, ""
    invoke-static {p1}, Ljava/lang/Integer;->toString(I)Ljava/lang/String;
    move-result-object v1

    # Pass the string as a parameter
    invoke-static {v1}, Lcom/example/MyClass;->myMethod(Ljava/lang/String;)V

    return-void
.end method
