Memory Map

The Memory Map window (View ▶ Memory) displays all memory blocks allocated by the debugged program. Figure 9-4 shows the memory map for the Netcat program.

Figure 9-4. Memory map for Netcat (nc.exe)

The memory map is great way to see how a program is laid out in memory. As you can see in Figure 9-4, the executable is labeled along with its code and data sections. All DLLs and their code and data sections are also viewable. You can double-click any row in the memory map to show a memory dump of that section. Or you can send the data in a memory dump to the disassembler window by right-clicking it and selecting View in Disassembler.
