 0001:001EFC14 00000020 C=CODE     S=.text    G=(none)   M=Vcl.CategoryButtons A         


        

Answer 1

It mean that your asm code of your unit MainU start at $00232C28 address and the length of compiled unit is $00006998 bytes.

The segment class (C=) is CODE, defined at beginning of map file.

The segment name (S=) is .text

The segment group (G=) is none.

The segment module (M=) is MainU

The ACBP attribute = A9 mean:

• Unnamed absolute portion of memory address space
• A public combining
• The segment may be larger than 64K
