Chapter 9: Debugger Commands
Program Context Expand
Program Context Expand
The Program Context Expand command displays values of the parameters
passed to a function, and the local variables in a function. The values are
displayed in the Journal window.
To display a function's calling parameters and local variables, specify the
function's stack level preceded by an at sign (@). The Backtrace window in
high-level mode displays the function calling chain from the main program to
the current function. The debugger displays the function stack (nesting) level
beside each function name. The current function is level 0, the caller is always
1, etc.
You can use the Program Context Expand command to display the local
variables and parameters of any function shown in the backtrace window. The
calling parameters and local variables are accessible on the C run-time stack
for functions in a directly-called chain from the main program to the current
function.
