Chapter 9: Debugger Commands
Memory Block_Operation Fill
Memory Block_Operation Fill
The Memory Block_Operation Fill command fills the range of memory
locations specified by the address range < addr> ..< addr> with the value or
values specified by an expression < expr> or an expression string
< expr_string> . If no expression is given, the debugger fills the specified
memory locations with zeros. The specified size qualifier (Byte, Word, or
Long) determines the size of the value.
If you specify a single expression value, the debugger fills the memory area
with that value. If you enter an expression string, the debugger fills the
memory area with the specified string pattern.
An expression string is a list of values separated by commas and can include
ASCII characters enclosed in quotation marks. All expressions in an
expression string are padded or truncated to the size specified by the size
qualifiers if they do not fit the specified size evenly.
If the number of values in an expression string is less than the number of bytes
in the specified address range, the debugger repeatedly places the list of values
in memory until all designated memory locations are filled. If you specify more
values than can be contained in the specified address range, the debugger
ignores the excess values.
