SLAF jets bomb LTTE base- The Island- 2008/08/27

by Norman Palihawadana

The Iranamadu camp, where the two LTTE aircraft had returned after attacking Trincomalee Navy base on Tuesday night, was bombed immediately by the Sri Lanka Air Force, Air Marshal Rohan Guntilake told The Island yesterday.

The Navy radar had detected the Tiger aircraft flying towards Trincomalee at a distance of 45 Km. on Tuesday. The Tigers dropped two bombs, of which only one exploded killing four Navy personnel and injuring 14. A section of the Navy base was damaged and two boats were destroyed.

Once the Navy base alerted the SLAF, a number of fighter jets were dispatched from the Katunayake air base but the terrorist aircraft had returned to the rebel controlled area by that time. Although Tuesday’s air attack was the sixth by the LTTE on vital targets the SLAF had not been able to pursue and destroy the two light planes operated by the terrorists.

Reversing C++ String And QString

After the rust string overview of its internal substructures, let's see if c++ QString storage is more light, but first we'r going to take a look to the c++ standard string object: At first sight we can see the allocation and deallocation created by the clang++ compiler, and the DAT_00400d34 is the string. If we use same algorithm than the rust code but in c++: We have a different decompilation layout. Note that the Ghidra scans very fast the c++ binaries, and with rust binaries gets crazy for a while. Locating main is also very simple in a c++ compiled binary, indeed is more low-level than rust. The byte array is initialized with a simply move instruction: 00400c4b 48 b8 68 MOV RAX,0x6f77206f6c6c6568 And basic_string generates the string, in the case of rust this was carazy endless set of calls, detected by ghidra as a runtime, but nevertheless the basic_str...
