An Array window allows manipulation of a contiguous block of memory, displayed as an array of elements. The window lists array contents sequentially, starting at -element 0.
-The Array window title shows the base address bound to the array. The base address can bind to an address, a variable, or a register. An array bound to a local variable closes after the routine that defines the variable returns to the calling routine.
-For array elements cast as structured types, a hierarchical control appears to the left of each element. Use these hierarchical controls to expand or collapse the display of each element’s contents.
-Figure 1 shows an Array window. Table 1 explains the items in the window.

| Item | -Icon | -Explanation | -
|---|---|---|
| Hierarchical control | -- | Click to collapse the view of the information pane. | -
| Bind To | -- | Select the base address of the array: Address, Variable, or Register. | -
| Array size | -- | Enter the number of elements to display in the Array window. | -
| Struct Member | -- | Select a specific member to show in each element, or show all members. | -
| Element | -- | Shows the array elements in a hierarchical list. | -
| Value | -- | Shows the value of each array element. | -
| Location | -- | Shows the address in memory of each array element. | -
Use the View Array command to manipulate a memory block in an Array window.
-A new Array window appears.
-TIP Drag and drop a register or variable name into an Array window to set the base address. Use the View Memory As command to interpret memory displayed in an Array window as a different type.
-Alternatively, use a contextual menu to open an Array window, as explained in Table 2.
