HexView and Unix [message #36597]

HexView is a nice control, but it can be compiled only on Windows, and the reason for that is that it is using IsBadReadPtr() function, which is AFAIK checking that a particular memory address is mapped to physical memory.

Does somebody know an easy way to get rid of IsBadReadPtr(), which is also very slow?

TIA

Actually, HexView is just help tool for pdb debugger. That is why there is that invalid memory checking.

What actually WOULD make a lot of sense is separating "read" operation from HexView, so that it can be used to view many other entities (e.g. files). Adding to RM, but I think it will get realized in next release cycle (where I would like to concentrate on theide, and I would like to be able to view hexadecimal files there).
