Jim,

That information was really helpful.

Thank you, Max.

There is a way to do this in gdb. We plan to have a "view as array" command in a future version of Xcode so this is more convenient from the UI. But for now, you can use the gdb expression syntax in the Expressions window. So, open the Expressions window and enter, for example:

*pop@20

This will show you the first 20 elements of the pop array. If you want to start further into the array, you can do:

*(pop+20)@20

which will show the 20 elements after element 20... If you want read more about this, have a look at:

file:///Developer/Documentation/DeveloperTools/gdb/gdb/gdb_9.html#SEC53

the section on "artificial arrays" in the gdb manual.

Hope this helps,

Jim

Hi,

I'm new to xcode and been looking for an answer to a simple question without any luck. I'm debugging a program which uses pointers of the type:

double *pop;

where pop is an array of values. Is there an option in the debugger to see all the values in that array?

Because the value given by the debugger is a memory location (and the first value in that location), but I'm interested in the value at that location and also the followings, not just the first one. One option is to define each of the values I want to see in the "Expressions" window, like:

pop[0]
pop[1]
...
and so on...

But when the array is so big, this is obviously not an option.

Any guidance on this matter will be very appreciated.

Thank you, Max.
