<h1>Working with variables</h1>
|
|
|
16 |
|
|
|
17 |
<p>During a debug session, you can display variable types, and change
|
|
|
18 |
or disable variable values.</p>
|
|
|
19 |
|
|
|
20 |
<p>To display variable type names:</p>
|
|
|
21 |
|
|
|
22 |
<ul>
|
|
|
23 |
<li>In Variables view, click the <b>Show Type Names</b> toggle button.</li>
|
|
|
24 |
</ul>
|
|
|
25 |
|
|
|
26 |
<p>To change a variable value while debugging:</p>
|
|
|
27 |
|
|
|
28 |
<p>During a debug, you can change the value of a variable to test how your
|
|
|
29 |
program handles a particular value or to speed through a loop.</p>
|
|
|
30 |
|
|
|
31 |
<ol>
|
|
|
32 |
<li>In Variables view, right-click a variable, and select <b>Change Value</b>.</li>
|
|
|
33 |
<li>Type a value.</li>
|
|
|
34 |
</ol>
|
|
|
35 |
|
|
|
36 |
<p>To disable a variable value while debugging:</p>
|
|
|
37 |
|
|
|
38 |
<p>You can disable a variable so that the debugger does not read the variable's
|
|
|
39 |
value from the target. This is useful if the target is very sensitive or the
|
|
|
40 |
variable is specified as volatile.</p>
|
|
|
41 |
|
|
|
42 |
<ul>
|
|
|
43 |
<li>In Variables view, right-click a variable, and select <b>Disable</b>.</li>
|
|
|
44 |
</ul>
