Hi all!

I have some question about memory view in CDT Debugger again :)

May be I'm wrong but it seemed to me that when I make step memory view
isn't refreshing correectly. I think so because after step Debugger
doesn't send to gdb "-data-read-memory" command. So I decided that it is
not quite correct fact but may be I'm wrong.

And another one. Please write to me exactly what should I type in field
Address in Memory View in order to change value by, for example, address
"0x00". I type there "0x00 5" and what to write "5" by address "0x00" but
nothing happens...

Great Thanks in advance,

If you want your memory view to be updated every time when the execution of
your program stops you have to switch on the 'Auto-Refresh' button or
context menu in the Memory view. It is off by default.
You can also use the 'Refresh' button or context menu to update the Memory
view any time you want.

The only purpose of the 'Address' field is to accept the address of memory
block you want to examine.
If you want to change value at some address:
1. Type the address in the 'Address' field and press Enter.
2. The Memory view will display the contents of memory locations beginning
at the address specified in the 'Address' box.
3. This content is editable if the format of the Memory view is set to
'Hexadecimal' (default).
Overwrite the values you want to change and use the 'Save Changes" button or
context menu to save your changes.
