Locals Window
To open the Locals window, you must be debugging. From the Debug menu, choose Windows, and then choose Breakpoints.
To save screen space, the Locals window shares the same frame as the Breakpoints, Autos, This, and Disassembly windows. You can switch back and forth between these windows using the tabs at the bottom of the frame. The title bar changes accordingly.
The Locals window contains three columns of information:
- Name
- This column contains the names of all local variables in the current scope. Structure and array variables have a tree control that you can use to display or hide the elements.
- Value
- This column shows the value contained by each variable. By default, integer variables are represented in decimal form. You can change the representation to hexadecimal in the Tools dialog box or by right-clicking on the Autos window and choosing the Hexadecimal Display option from the shortcut menu.
- Type
- This column identifies the data type of each variable listed in the Name column.
