dsdump is a command-line tool that inspects Mach-O binaries, dumping symbol tables plus Objective-C classes and Swift type descriptors, acting as an improved nm and class-dump. It supports demangling, filtering, and multi-architecture binaries.
Use cases
- dump objective-c classes from a mach-o binary
- inspect swift type descriptors in an ios app binary
- list symbols referenced by a macos executable
- reverse engineer an apple framework's classes
- demangle swift and c++ symbols from a binary
When to choose
- you need to dump ObjC or Swift class info from Mach-O binaries on macOS
- you want an nm/class-dump replacement with filtering and demangling
When to avoid
- you need accurate dumps of binaries using post-2021 dyld binding opcodes - the README recommends ipsw instead
- you need a maintained tool with a license or active bug fixes
