/ 1 min read

🛑✨ Ghidra 11.2 enhances user experience with script cancellation features. The latest release of Ghidra introduces improvements to script management, particularly in allowing users to cancel long-running scripts effectively. Analysts can now implement a cancellation check within their scripts, ensuring that if a script is cancelled, it shuts down gracefully without unnecessary overhead. The TaskMonitor object provides real-time updates on script progress, displaying the current action and total tasks, which enhances user interaction. By initializing the monitor with a maximum value and updating it within loops, users can track progress visually. Additionally, the article emphasizes the importance of incorporating cancellation checks to improve script responsiveness and user experience.
