Good day,
Is there any information available on PyGenFv? It also handles ELF to PE
conversion (who knows why...), is that planned to be ported to Python as
well? For Project Amaranth, we are currently implementing a tool to
replace the ELF to PE conversion (among other things) and decided to
write it in C to leverage the existing EDK II libraries for PE and ELF
parsing, rather than re-implementing parsing in a different language.
We'd like to stay compatible with upstream EDK II for as long as
possible, and plan to send patches for a tool proposal whenever it is
ready (do not expect it before mid next year, if at all).
Best regards,
Marvin

Correct. PyFMMT does not depend on GenSec, GenFfs and GenFv. Yes. the
future PyGenSec, PyGenFfs and PyGenFv can reuse code from PyFMMT.
Thanks,

This is a good news. Thanks for your great work. With this change,
FMMT doesn’t depend on GenSec, GenFfs and GenFv C tool. Right? If yes,
can those logic be reused to replace GenSec, GenFfs and GenFv C tools?
Thanks
Liming

*主题:* [edk2-devel] RFC: Replace FMMT Tool from C to Python Version
Hi everyone,
I would like to propose the new FMMT Python tool, which is used to
replace the origin C version tool.
Currently the FMMT C tool is saved in edk2-staging repo, but its
quality and coding style can’t meet the Edk2 quality, which is hard to
maintain (Hard/Duplicate Code; Regression bugs; Restrict usage).
The new Python version keeps same functions with origin C version. It
has higher quality and better coding style, and it is much easier to
extend new functions and to maintain.
You can get the FMMT Python tool through below link.
https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-staging/tree/PyFMMT
<https://github.com/tianocore/edk2-staging/tree/PyFMMT>
If you are interested in that, pls have a try.
Looking forward to your feedback~
Thanks,
Christine (Yuwei)
