Viewing the Data in Memory at a Given Address (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/5/2010

You can view the data in memory at a specified address.

To view data in memory at a given address

  1. From the View menu, choose Debug Windows and then choose Memory.

    You can use the shortcut menu to change the display to short or long hex format.

  2. Choose from the following:

    • In the Address box, type a hexadecimal address and then press the ENTER key.
      The display changes to show the new memory location at the top of the list.
    • Double-click any variable in an editor window and drag it to the contents portion of the memory window.
    • Select a variable from the watch window or from the Auto tab, Locals tab, or This tab in the variables window and drag it to the contents area of the memory window.

When dragging items to the memory window, the data starts on the line on which you drag the variable, not the upper left corner.

Notice that as you drag a variable over the contents area of the memory window, a text cursor follows the mouse pointer indicating where the data for that variable will start when you drop. This allows you to view the contents of previous addresses as well.

Note

You can use Undo or Redo commands from the toolbar to reverse or reapply your actions.
