Changing the Values of Variables
View > Dive Displays the expression or variable in a Variable Window.
Although this command is also on a context
menu, you can just double-click or middle-click on the
variable’s name instead.
Edit > Duplicate Expression
Duplicates the selected column. You would duplicate a
column to see a similar variable or expression. For example,
if myvar_looks_at[i] is in the Expression column,
duplicating it and then modifying the new row is an
easy way to see myvar_looks_at[i] and
myvar_looks_at[i+j-k] at the same time.
This command is also on a context menu.
Changing the Values of Variables
You can change the value of any variable or the contents of any memory
location displayed in a Variable Window, Expression List Window, or Stack
Frame Pane by selecting the value and typing the new value. In addition to
typing a value, you can also type an expression. For example, you can enter
12*12 as shown in the following figure. You can include logical operators in
all TotalView expressions. (See Figure 199. )
CLI: set my_var [expr 1024*1024]
dassign int8_array(3) $my_var
In most cases, you can edit a variable’s value. If you right-click on a variable
and the Change Value command isn’t faded, you can edit the displayed
value.
