Viewing the contents of a register
Note:
Register information is not available when debugging interpreted Java programs. It is
available when debugging High Performance Compiled (HPC) Java programs.
You can view the contents of a register from the Registers pane, the Monitors pane if
you have added the register there, or a Storage Monitor pane if you have added the
register there.
To view the contents of a register in the Registers pane:
- Expand the thread for which you want to view the registers.
- Expand the register category that contains the register you want to view.
- If desired, use the scroll to scroll the pane until the
register is visible.
To view the contents of a register you have already added to the Monitors pane:
- If necessary, use the scroll bars to scroll the Monitors
pane until the register is visible.
- If desired, change the representation of the register: right-click on the register and select Representation
from the pop-up menu. Then select the desired representation from the Monitor
Representation dialog box.
To view the contents of a register you have already added to a Storage pane:
- If necessary, use the scroll bars or PageUp and PageDown keys to scroll the Storage pane
until the register is visible.
- If desired, change the representation of the register: right-click on the register and select Representation
from the pop-up menu. Then select the desired representation from the Monitor
Representation dialog box.
