Custom RelocationFixupHandler cannot be called from code

See original GitHub issue

I’ve added relocations into RelocationTable relocTable = program.getRelocationTable(); and tried to use it by program.setImageBase(), but it doesn’t call my handler. It happens only when I’m changing ImageBase from GUI.

@ghidra1, his Extension Point is working. This issue is about the Extension Point only being called via a rebase from the GUI, and not from the API.

Since you are doing this programatically, you could try using the RelocationFixupCommand after your call to setImageBase. Be sure to specify the setImageBase commit param as true with an open transaction. Since you are in control of the loader you would know if there are any other memory changes made during import that would be problematic.
