Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for determining an address for a private function. A start address for a public function of a software program in a data file associated with the software program is determined. Instruction data for the public function is identified in the data file based on the start address of the public function. First data of a predetermined size is read from a beginning of the instruction data for the public function. A signature for a private function of the software program is identified in the first data. A relative address for the private function in the data file based on the identified signature is stored in memory.
