What is the best way to use a value in a memory location in a hush shell scritpt that gets run with autoscript?
Use the "itest" command.
For example, say a CRC value for area 20000000 -- 20001000 is stored in a flash, at location 12345678. If I wanted to verify a crc against this value, I'd like to pass the value at address 12345678 as a last argument.
"itest" can use a pointer and dereference it, so you can pass the address instead of the value.
or is it better to just read the value from flash, store it in a local variable and use it?
There is no easy way to read a value from memory and store it in a variable.
Best regards,
