Re: [cdt-debug-dev] address spaces

I'm not sure that I'm getting it right, but we use "IAddress" to represent an address in CDT. We would need to modify the address presentation parts, but that's a minor thing. Or there is something more generic that I'm missing?

As per my description, this issue goes beyond the Memory Window. Please
see
my description of the "complete" support level.

It would be better to post this questions to the platform mailing list

based on the  platform framework and UI. The modifications to support
address spaces should be done in the platform.
