how to extract referenced data of instruction?

[Jun Koi]

hi IDA experts,

in IDA, i have some instructions accessing static data, like below:

movd xmm3, ds:dword_401528

given the linear address ("ea") of the instruction, using IDAPython,
how can i extract the data referenced by the instruction? (i.e the
data at address ds:dword_401528 in above example)

many thanks,
Jun

sorry for not being clear: i want to do static analysis here (not at
run time with debugger), and given that the data is static at that
address, i think there must be a way to get it.

thanks,
Jun

any idea, pls? is this possible or not?

thanks,

There's an API for that. GetOperandValue I think, just search idc.py for relevant functions and try them
