Hello,

Im new to this and have a question. I want to set a breakpoint when the memory at location 019E1538 is written to. How would I do this?

I try to set a mem breakpoint thru the hex dump before I start the program but the memory address is not specified yet and I do not know how to get to it so that I can set the breakpoint.

Thanx for the help,
-Flack

i dont think is possible. one method that i think is to write a plugin that monitors the address and when it is available to set a breakpoint, or make
a trace and look for the address that access your memory location

a hardware breakpoint will work. Set the breakpoint when the memory is created, and then restart the program. it'll stay in memory whilst the memory is not available and become active as soon as it is available.
