For each common block defined in the scope of a subroutine or function, TotalView creates an entry in that function’s common block list. The names of common block members have function scope, not global scope. If you select the function in the Call Stack, the common blocks and their variables appear in the Local Variables view. From there, of course, you can move those variables to the Data View to create expressions or cast a type, for example.

Figure 52 illustrates the handling of common blocks.
