Function Documentation

idaman bool ida_export create_data	(	ea_t	ea,
		flags_t	dataflag,
		asize_t	size,
		tid_t	tid
	)

Convert to data (byte, word, dword, etc).

This function may be used to create arrays.

Parameters

ea	linear address
dataflag	type of data. Value of function byte_flag(), word_flag(), etc.
size	size of array in bytes. should be divisible by the size of one item of the specified type. for variable sized items it can be specified as 0, and the kernel will try to calculate the size.
tid	type id. If the specified type is a structure, then tid is structure id. Otherwise should be BADNODE.

Returns

success
