Data View
The Data View enables you to create expressions in order to analyze your data. Add variables to the Data View by selecting them in the Local Variables view and either dragging them into the Data View, or right-clicking and selecting Add to Data View from the context menu.
Once a variable is displayed in the Data View, you can manipulate it in multiple ways to clearly see what your data is doing, for example, you can:
Dereference pointers to access the data they point to.Recast data to see different views of it, such as recasting pointers to the first value in an array into the actual array so you can see the contained values.Changing data values to see the effect on the program, which you can also do in the Local Variables view.Figure 8, The Data View
