You can either show the "Object Viewer" tool (Menu Execution>Tools>Object Viewer, or popup the object viewer dialog thanks to the button located in the tool bar of the [[Object tool|objects tool]] and [[Expression evaluation|watch tool]] . <br/>
|
|
This command [[Image:debugger-expand-info-icon]] opens an object viewer dialog when an object is dropped onto the button.
|
|
|
|
Depending the nature of the dropped object, you can view it with several viewers:
|
|
* '''Object dump''': dump a text representation of the value
|
|
* '''String display''': string representation
|
|
* '''XML display''': xml viewer
|
|
* '''Object browse''': browse the object, as you would do in objects or watch tools
|
|
* '''Object internal''': display a few internal data such as <code>class_name</code>, <code>type_name</code>, <code>dynamic_type</code>, <code>field_count</code>, <code>deep_physicial_size</code>, and <code>physical_size</code>
|
|
|
|
{{note|that the "string display" viewer is available for object with a string representation, for instance object conformed to [[ref:/libraries/base/reference/string_8_chart]] or conform to [[ref:/libraries/base/reference/debug_output_chart]] (see [[Debug output|Debug Output]] )}}
|
|
|
|
{{note|And the "XML display" is available for object eligible to "String display", and whose string representation has XML content. The viewer is display XML in a basic tree enabled grid.}}

'''String display viewer:''':<br/>

Displays the object as a string, by default the displayed length is 50:<br/>
|
|
If the limits are over the current slice limits, the displayed string will end by "..." to show there is more.<br/>
|
|
If you click on the auto expand button [[Image:debugger-object-expand-icon]] , the slice limits will be set to the lower and upper limits of the string value.
|
