Memory view

dsherman — Fri, 22 Aug 2014 00:14:53 GMT

I've noticed that when using the Memory View window, it doesn't always tell the truth. Most of the time I can examine memory regions or CPU registers, but occasionally there are locations that just show up as all FF. I know they aren't, because I can put *(address) in the expression window, and it tells me what I expect to see. For example, if I look at SRAM between 0x1FFFF000 and 0x1FFFF040 on a KE06, it shows 0xFF for all those locations.

Hi David,

On my FRDM-K64F board with P&E Multilink interface I've reproduced the problem too.

The problem occurs occasionally.

I've executed with the same project the same process several time:

- clean,

- build,

- launch debug,

- show memory at Memory Browser and Memory component,

- run the debugger (bkpt is set),

- stop on bkpt,

- show Memory Browser and Memory component.

Half of the time the Memory displays right value.

Please have a look jpgs attached.

Is it same issue ?

Have a great day,
Pascal Irrle

Hi Pascal, yes, that's the kind of thing I'm seeing. I can set the expression window to show the contents of a location, and it will show one thing, but the memory view window may show all FF.
