Expression Evaluation Features

entered. By default, the evaluator looks for C symbols first, so any variables which

are the same as register names will be shown instead. If a name is being interpreted

as a register it will be prefixed by a ‘$’.

It is recommended that you use this ‘$’ prefix when entering register names to

explicitly tell the evaluator that it is looking at a register.

Note: Registers have a C type of ‘int’.

Typecasts and Typedefs

Typecasts can be entered to an expression via the usual C syntax.

If you entered ‘(int*)$fp’ to a Watch Pane you would see the following:

+int*(int*)$fp = 0x8000ff00

Typecasting also works for structure tags; however, you are not required to enter

the keyword ‘struct’ when csting to a structure tag.

You would expect to see the following when typecasting to a structure (or class):

-Tester* (Tester*)$fp = 0x807ff88

-Tester

+unsigned char* m_pName = 0x00000645

+unsigned char* mpLongName = 0xFFFFFFFF

You can also cast to typedefs; for example, entering ‘(daddr_t)p’ will produce:

long (daddr_t)p = 0x00003024
