| <> Function function readPointer(Address) : Integer |
Reads a pointer-sized integer from the specified address in the currently opened (target) process. In a 64-bit target, this is equivalent to readQword; in a 32-bit target, it is equivalent to readInteger.
Function Parameters[edit]
| Parameter | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Address | Integer or CEAddressString | The address in the target process to read from. |
Returns[edit]
Integer — The pointer-sized value read from the specified address.
Examples[edit]
-- Read a pointer from address 0x123456
local ptr = readPointer(0x123456)
print("Pointer value:", ptr)
-- Read from a CEAddressString
local ptr2 = readPointer("game.exe+1234")
print("Pointer value:", ptr2)
