IDE 6.1 Memory Window

Hi,

I installed Quartus 6.1 and all NIOSII tools. In IDE was some differences with older IDE version. For example memory window. But, when I load unsigned short buffer data 1, 2, 3, ..i, memory window displays 0x0100, 0x0200, 0x0300 (bytes are swapped). It is any bug or switchable option? The same project in IDE for Q5.1 displays ok. (0x0001, 0x0002, 0x0003)

    I have this too

    B3218000 is displayed as

    008021B3 or as

    00 80 21 B3

    so the 32bit view is false.

    Regards.

    ... and one "feature" still remains ...

    This window looses all settings except the address of the memory ... after stop and restart of a debug of the the current source. V6.1 is compatible to V6.0 :-)

    hi,

    i dont think it is a real "bug" just an annoyance i experienced, too. and i gave up finding the option to "save view settings" - got somehow used to it by not using the ide anymore http://forum.niosforum.com/work2/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif btw, stepping thru your code may sometimes influence the results! (even with -O0) try using the &#39;nios2-elf-insight&#39; debugger tool, my suggestion.

    regards,

    martin
