No Structureview in Debugger?
« on: October 20, 2016, 07:13:14 pm »
Hi,
Just fired up the debugger and wondered when i tried to inspect Self or Sender in events. The Local-Variables window shows only addresses, while a hover over the variable on the source displays the whole structure. Is this normal and has not been implemented or is something wrong?

EDIT:

yes this is normal.

You can use the watches window, but it also just shows the whole (it has a side panel (magnifier tool btn), that you can activate, so you can see the content multi-line)

The watches window has the option to show "Sender: TObject" as TObject (default) or TWhateverInstanciatedClass (see properties)

-------------
There also is the debug inspector, that shows the data in a grid. And allows to double click properties to inspect nested data.

-----------
But there is no tree-like viewer with +/-
