CopyMemory

CopyMemory SrcAddress, DestAddress, Size

Parameters:     SrcAddress = The source address we'll copy from     DestAddress = The destination address we'll copy the data to     Size = The number of bytes to copy

Returns: NONE

CopyMemory will copy a section of memory from one location to another. FACTS:       * CopyMemory is dealing with raw memory, as such, PB can not protect you from making mistakes. Thus CopyMemory assumes the memory addresses you give it are valid, if not, you should expect the program to crash !       * CopyMemory does not support copying overlapping address areas.       * CopyMemory is the fastest way to duplicate blocks of memory in PlayBASIC. Mini Tutorial:       This example fills a bank with some values, then copies this to second bank via CopyMemory.       ; The bank of the banks   Size=10    ; create src bank   SrcBank=NewBank(Size)    ; Fill this bank with values zero to size   For lp=0 To Size-1      PokeBankByte SrcBank,lp,lp   Next       ; create a second bank   DestBank=NewBank(Size)          ; Calc the Src Address of the memory to copy   SrcAddress=GetBankPtr(SrcBank)    ; Calc tyhe destination address   DestAddress=GetBankPtr(DestBank)    ; Copy the Memory from the SRC bank to the DEST Bank   CopyMemory SrcAddress,DestAddress,Size       ; Display the bytes from the Dest Bank   For lp=0 To Size-1      Print PeekBankByte(DestBank,lp)   Next    ;refresh the screen and wait for a key press   Sync   WaitKey    This example would output.      0   1   2   3   4   5   6   7   8   9
