Memory view

-

The Memory view of the Debug perspective lets you inspect and change your process memory. The view -consists of four tabs that let you inspect multiple sections of memory. The -options described below are available when you right-click a memory value.

+ +

The Memory view of the Debug +perspective lets you monitor and modify your process memory. The process memory +is presented as a list of so called memory monitors. Each monitor represents +a section of memory specified by it's location called base address. Each +memory monitor can be displayed in different predefined data formats -- memory +renderings. The debugger supports four rendering types -- hexadecimal +(default), ascii, signed integer and unsigned integer. The +default rendering is displayed automatically on the monitor creation.

+ +

The Memory view contains two +panes -- the Memory Monitors pane and the Memory Renderings pane. The +Memory Monitors pane displays the list of memory monitors added to the debug +session currently selected in the Debug view. The content of the Memory +Renderings pane is controlled by the selection in the Memory Monitors pane and +consists of the tabs that display renderings. The Memory Renderings pane can be +configured to display two renderings simultaneously.

+ +

The following options are available.

-
Auto-Refresh
-
Updates the memory address list each time execution stops.
-
Refresh
-
Updates the memory address list.
-
Clear
-
Clears the selected memory address.
-
Format
-
Specifies the number system in which to display memory values (Hexadecimal, Signed Decimal, or Unsigned Decimal).
-
Memory Unit Size
-
Specifies the memory address size (1 byte, 2 bytes, 4 bytes, 8 bytes).
-
Number of Columns
-
Specifies the numbers of columns displayed in the Registers view (1 column, 2 columns, 4 columns, 8 columns, 16 columns).
-
Show ASCII
-
Displays the selected value as ASCII.
-
Detail panel
-
Displays the raw output from GDB for the selected variable.
-
+ +
Toggle Memory Monitor Pane
+
Shows/hides the Memory Monitor pane.
+ +
Toggle Split Pane
+
Toggles the Memory Renderings pane split.
+ +
Link Memory Rendering Panes
+
Synchronizes the selection of two memory renderings.
+ +
Padded String
+
Specifies the string that represents the unretrievable memory.
+ +
Default Column Size
+
Specifies the default +column size of the memory presentation (1 byte, 2 bytes, 4 bytes, 8 bytes). Can +be overwritten by each rendering.

Modules view

+ +

The Modules view of the Debug +perspective lets you view information about the modules loaded in the current +debug session, including executables and shared libraries. The view consists +of two areas: the modules tree and the detail pane. The detail pane displays +the detail information for the module selected in the modules tree. Expanding a +module users can view the module's internals - functions, global variables, associated +source files, etc.

+ +
+
Load Symbols
+
Loads the symbols of the module. The +symbols will be loaded from the file specified in the module's properties.
+ +
Load Symbols For All
+
Loads the symbols of the all modules involved in the current session. This option does not affect +the modules whose symbols are already loaded.

To monitor process memory:

    -
  1. In the Debug view, select a process. Selecting a thread - automatically selects the associated process.
    2. -
  2. In the Memory view, click a memory tab.
    3. -
  3. Do one of the following:
    4. -
    • In the Address box, type an address and press Enter.
      • -
    • In the memory view, type a new value for memory. The Memory - view works in "typeover" mode. To jump from byte to byte use the arrow keys:

    5. + +
  5. Select "Add Memory Monitor" in the context menu of the Memory Monitors pane. +The "Memory Monitor" dialog appears.
    6. + +
  6. Type the address or expression that specifies the memory section you want to monitor and +press "OK". The monitor appears in the monitor list and the Memory Renderings +pane displays the contents of memory locations beginning at the specified address.
