within <strong>TotalView</strong>. The right-most column displays the raw memory data. By<br />

default, this information is displayed in hexadecimal. However, you can<br />

change it to other formats by selecting a representation within the Format<br />

pulldown. The following figure shows a raw display with this pulldown<br />

extended:<br />

In either display, you can change the number of bytes grouped together<br />

and the amount of memory being displayed.<br />

If you select the View > Block Status command, <strong>TotalView</strong> will also give you<br />

additional information about memory. For example, you are told if the<br />

memory is in a text, data, or bss section. (If you see unknown, you are probably<br />

seeing a stack variable.)<br />

In addition, if you right-click on the header area of the table, a context<br />

menu lets you add a Status column. This column contains information such<br />

as “Allocated”, “PostGuard”, “Corrupted PreGuard”, etc.<br />
