Compiler/TMS320F28035: memcmp and memcpy - should size be in BYTEs (8-bit) or WORDs (16-bit)

Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler

I'm using the #include <string.h> and memcpy, memcmp library functions.

Since the sizeof() function returns amount of 16-bit WORDs in an element, can I assume that also memcmp and memcpy relate to the size of 16-bit elements when supplying thm with a size parameter?

Thanks,

Mechi

    Yes.  Throughout the C28x CPU and tools, addresses are counted in terms of 16-bit words, and not 8-bit bytes.

    Thanks and regards,
