IDebugHostMemory::ReadPointers method (dbgmodel.h)

  • Article

Reads a number of pointer sized objects from the address space of the target as defined by the inpassed context and location.

Each read pointer is, if necessary, zero extended to 64-bits and returned.

Syntax

HRESULT ReadPointers(
  IDebugHostContext *context,
  Location          location,
  ULONG64           count,
  ULONG64           *pointers
);

Parameters

context

The host context in which to read pointers. This represents, for example, the address space in which the location exists.

location

The location at which to read pointers. This location may represent a virtual address within the address space defined by context or it may represent something like a register within a context record for a thread.

count

The number of pointers to read.

pointers

The pointers read from the debug target will be placed into the array passed here. Any pointers less than 64-bits in size will be zero extended to 64-bits.

Return value

This method returns HRESULT which indicates success or failure.
