Member Function Documentation

Read() [1/2]

void Read	(	long	address,
		byte[]	buffer )

Reads memory from the remote device into the given buffer .

The number of bytes read depend on the Array.Length of the given buffer .

Parameters

address	Address to read from.
buffer	Byte array to read to.

Implemented in PortNode.

Read() [2/2]

void Read	(	long	address,
		IntPtr	bufferPointer,
		long	bufferLength )

Reads memory from the remote device into the given buffer.

Use of this method is unsafe; prefer using the typed nodes instead or reading into byte-arrays if necessary.

Parameters

address	Address to read from.
bufferPointer	Buffer to store data into.
bufferLength	Number of bytes to read; buffer must have at least that many bytes of allocated memory.

Implemented in PortNode.

Write() [1/2]

void Write	(	long	address,
		byte[]	buffer )

Writes the the given buffer to the remote device.

The number of bytes written depend on the Array.Length of the given buffer .

Parameters

address	Address to write to.
buffer	Byte array to write.

Implemented in PortNode.

Write() [2/2]

void Write	(	long	address,
		IntPtr	bufferPointer,
		long	bufferLength )

Writes memory from the given buffer to the remote device.

Use of this method is unsafe; prefer using the typed nodes instead or writing from byte-arrays if necessary.

Parameters

address	Address to write to.
bufferPointer	Buffer to write to device.
bufferLength	Number of bytes in the buffer.

Implemented in PortNode.
