Editing a Value In QuickWatch
To change the value of a variable or register
- Type the variable or register name in the Expression text box.
Tip If the register name happens to match a symbol name, use the @ symbol as a prefix to the register name.
- Click Recalculate.
- If you typed the name of an array or object variable in the Expression box, a tree control appears next to the name in the Current value box. Click on the plus (+) or minus (–) in the Name column to expand or collapse the variable to find the element whose value you want to edit.
- Double-click in the Value column of the Current value box to select the value.
- Use the mourse and keyboard to edit the value.
- Press ENTER.
Caution Editing floating-point values can result in minor inaccuracies due to decimal-to-binary conversion of fractional components. Even a seemingly innocuous edit can result in changes to some of the least significant bits in a floating-point variable.
You cannot edit the value of const variables. You can edit and display register values for native-code applications only.
