Managing Data in a WATCH Window
The debugger doesn’t maintain a dedicated window that tells you about the
status of all the symbols defined in your program. Such a window might be so
large that it wouldn’t be useful. Instead, the debugger allows you to create a
WATCH window that shows you how program execution affects specific
expressions, variables, registers, or memory locations.

The debugger displays a WATCH window
only when you specifically request
a WATCH window with the WA command (described below). For additional
details concerning the WATCH window, see
WATCH windows on page 3-18.
Remember, you can use the data-management commands or the debugger’s
overwrite editing capability to modify the contents of any value displayed in the
WATCH window. For more information, refer to Section 7.3,
Basic Methods for
Changing Data Values.
Note:
All of the watch commands described can also be accessed
from the Watch pulldown menu. For more information about
using the the pulldown menus, refer to Section 4.2,
Using the
Menu Bar and the Pulldown Menus, on page 4-7.
