Re: Retrive variable address

Within the context of a compiled program that information does not exist as such.

If you compile the code wth debug capability then you could exploit the debug APIs as a way of retrieving this data.

But I have to ask - why? What are you going to do with the info once you have it?

Hi all,

since %ADDR accepts only known names I'm looking for an API to retrive,
given the variable name in a variable, the addres and, possibly, type, size
decpos and so on.

TIA
