Status

For Qt 6, only version 6.6.2 or higher is recommended. Other lower versions are wired due to missing APIs of key libraries and some bugs of their own. Support for QT5 had been stopped, and I will no longer fix related issues, but PR will be welcomed. If you need QT5 version for special purposes, please consult me ​​for commercial cooperation and paid technical support.

The repository code compiles with Qt 5.15.2 and 6.6.2 on the latest versions of Windows and Ubuntu:

WingHexExplorer2

This software is a hexadecimal editor written in QT and developed in C++, providing a powerful and free hexadecimal editor. The ultimate goal of this project is to create a powerful, lightweight, and cross-platform (only for PC) hex editor. Of course, I cannot achieve this goal by myself, which is one of the purposes of my open source. I only maintain the operating system platform I use, and only respond to the bugs that I can fix on the platform I use in my free time. More details will be seen in my CNBlog .

License

This software complies with the AGPL-3.0 agreement. Please do not use it for purposes other than this agreement. Selfishness knows no bound. I don't want to be involved in a lot of energy because of copyright issues.

If you want to use the code of this software for closed-source commercial code and want to lift the restriction of the GPL series that it must be open source, please consult me ​​in person to discuss commercial licensing matters.

For plugin development, the corresponding open source agreements are different. Only the code of WingPlugin in this repository comply with the BSD 3-Clause agreement to allow closed-source commercial development. The code of TestPlugin/TestBadPlugin/TestHexExt/TestManager in this repository (except the file TranslationUtils.cmake which complies with BSD 3-Clause) complies with the MIT agreement.

Usage Statement

1. The source code of this software shall not be used for closed-source commercial purposes unless you open source it completely (as required by the GPL agreement). If you want to commercially close the code of the software warehouse, you must contact me to purchase a commercial license and sign a contract. Please contact me for the price. Please do not disturb me if you are not serious.
2. This software was written in my spare time. Please forgive me for not being able to fix bugs or provide technical support in time.
3. Whenever you have questions, please read the Wiki in detail.

For Packagers

First of all, I would like to express my sincere tanks for your enthusiastic help. As a free software, you can package and distribute it through legal channels without informing me under the condition of complying with the open source license and spirit. You can include your own information in the packaging information, but you must abide by the following agreements with me as the author of the software:

1. The software package must contain the files LICENSE, authorband.svg, licenseband.svg, screenshot.png and README.md, and they must be placed in the same directory as the main program. These files are in the root directory of the project, just copy them.
2. Unless it is stated in advance that the software is modified, the package must not contain the main program compiled from the modified source code.
3. The package must not contain content that infringes on the legitimate rights and interests of others, such as adding unauthorized paid content or computer viruses to it.
4. It is best to contain the checksum of the main program in the package, but it is not mandatory.
5. Regardless of the packaging format, its open source agreement and free attributes must be stated, and it is not allowed to hide and charge for it. Although I don't mind charging, the download server still needs money to maintain, but I hate charging by taking advantage of the information gap.
6. Regardless of the purpose, if you do not obtain the authorization of me, you may not modify any network links pointed to and the ABOUT contents in the program, such as sponsorship and content about the software.
7. You may not insert any plug-in containing commercial promotion in the installation program.

If you are a Windows user, you can download in the release page, or compile other versions by yourself; For Linuxers, you can try to download the RUN file or help yourself; If you are using Arch-based Linux, you can install the winghexexplorer2 AUR package, or install winghexexplorer2-git to try the latest contents, but it is best not to use the nightly builds for daily use, although it is generally stable at present.

Issue

If you have any suggestions, please be sure to read the following statement before submitting an issue to avoid wasting our precious time:

1. If you find that the software does not provide support for your language, you can add it through pull request. Note that the translated text in the code is just an identifier, it may not be the real text, please refer to my Chinese to confirm the translation.
2. For updates, major version plug-ins are incompatible. If there are any problems with the plug-in, please contact the developer (it is not ruled out that I will develop some plug-ins, so you can contact me directly).

All of the above, if you are a like-minded open source contributor, you are welcome to fork my repository for corresponding maintenance!

If a serious bug occurs, I may not respond in time, and I refuse any gossip from the moral high ground.

Without standing on the shoulders of giants, it will not have powerful and stable functions.The source code of the open source basic projects used in this software that have not been modified by me all comply with the open source agreement of the original author; The parts that I have modified, unless otherwise specified, all comply with the agreement of this repository.
