Reads two bytes (word) from the memory region. Mainly is intended for using in the Visual Basic applications where the direct manipulations with the pointers is difficult.


Language

Description

C/C++
USHORT GetMemW ( HANDLE hIsa, ULONG MappedAddress, ULONG MemOffset );
Delphi
function GetMemW ( hIsa: THandle; MappedAddress: Longword; MemOffset: Longword ): Word; stdcall;
VB
Function GetMemW ( ByVal hIsa As Long, ByVal MappedAddress As Long, ByVal MemOffset As Long) As Integer


Parameters:
hIsa - the handle returned by a successful call to OpenRapidIsa ;
MappedAddress - the linear address returned by MapPhysToLinear
MemOffset - the offset value, should begin from the "0" value.

Return Value :
16-bit value from the region.

Comments:

In general, "MappedAddress" can be any valid linear pointer to the memory. But if this pointer was received from the MapPhysToLinear function then you can access physical memory also.
