Nope, it wasn't known to us, but then again, I don't think I'd header about the "heap fill" command either until this message :)I tried to use the debug console's heap fill command today, and found that it doesn't work. The last time I tried this I was using a Mac and it worked, so perhaps it fails on the Windows version of the debugger? I'm running the latest CW 8 on Windows XP Pro, and version 3.5 of POSE.
I just checked the implementation, and I don't see anything that substantive that differs from the version we have in V9 and what was used back for V7. It basically allocates chunks of memory on a heap until there is no region of free memory on the heap that could satisify an allocation for the specified number of bytes.
The Mac/Win thing may be a give away. I know that there were a number of endian problems with the console commands that we solved in the V9 debugger, so its possible that this was suffering from one of them.
