Notes:
Usually, you work with monitors in the Monitors pane; however, you can also create monitors in the Source window. Unless otherwise specified, the following procedures assume that you are working in the Monitors pane.
You can work with the PASE Debugger in a variety of ways: by right-clicking appropriate objects or by using a menu or a keyboard shortcut, or by using the tool bar (if the command has a tool icon). The following procedures specify only one way to select a command.
The monitors in the upper portion of the pane display the hexadecimal addresses for the variables. The read-only text area in the lower portion of the pane displays the contents of the variables.
To watch a variable, select Watch on the row that contains the variable. To stop watching a variable, deselect Watch. Watching a variable causes the debugger to stop program operation whenever the location of the variable changes.
To display the memory that is associated with a variable, right-click the row that contains the variable and select Go to Memory or New Memory Window.
To create a new monitor, complete the following steps:
To delete a single monitor, right-click the monitor that you want to delete and select Delete Monitor.
To delete all the monitors, right-click the Monitors pane and select Delete All Monitors. Confirm your choice by clicking Yes in the Delete All Monitors message box.
To copy all the data from the pane to the clipboard, right-click in the pane and select Copy Panel.
To suspend updates to the pane, right-click the Monitors pane and select Suspend Updates. To begin updating again, right-click in the pane and select Resume Updates.
