System Dump Analyzer SEARCH — VMS 5.5-2H4
SEARCH [/qualifier...] range[=]expression
SDA evaluates the expression and searches the range of memory for all
occurrences of that value. As each occurrence is found, its location
is displayed.
The search range can be specified as "n:m" (locations n through m
inclusive) or "n;m" (m bytes, starting at n, where n and m are
arithmetic expressions).
Additional information available:
/LENGTH=length_specifier
This qualifier specifies the size of the expression value to be
used for successful matching during searches of memory. The
possible values of this qualifier are:
LONGWORD - specifies that the expression to be searched for
is four bytes in length. This is the default value.
WORD - specifies that the expression to be searched for
is two bytes in length.
BYTE - specifies that the expression to be searched for
is one byte in length.
/STEPS=step_factor
This qualifier controls the granularity of searching through the
specified memory range. As each comparison of memory occurs, the
value of this qualifier determines what the next memory location
to be searched will be. The possible step_factors are:
QUADWORD - specifies a step_factor of eight bytes.
LONGWORD - specifies a step_factor of four bytes. This is the
default value for this qualifier.
WORD - specifies a step_factor of two bytes.
BYTE - specifies a step_factor of one byte.
