Using the Disassembly Window

To display the Disassembly window

The Disassembly window shows assembly code corresponding to the instructions created by the compiler. In addition, it can show the following optional information:

To turn optional information on or off

A yellow arrow in the left margin shows the location of the current execution point. For native code, this corresponds to the CPU's program counter. This location shows the next instruction that will be executed in your program.

Navigating the Memory Space

To page up or down in the memory space

You can't scroll by dragging the thumb up or down, as you can with ordinary scrollbars. Due to the huge size of the memory space on modern computers, scrolling would likely cause you to overshoot any area of memory you were looking for. So, the thumb acts as if it were spring loaded and always remains in the center of the scrollbar.

Notice that higher memory addresses appear at the bottom of the window, so if you want to view a higher address, you must page down.
