Watch Data View

The Watch Data view displays program variables, addresses, and system control blocks from the dump that you selected to view.

This view displays attributes of the selected item in the Description column. For each posted item, the Watch Data view displays the following details in a tabular format:

• Name
  Displays the names of variables, addresses, or storage areas that have been sent to the Watch View.

• Value
  Shows the display value for the item. For program variables, the data description in the program dictates the format of the value. If the item is a keyword, posted expression, or group item, there is no display value. The data description shows a message related to the item.

• Hex Value
  Displays the hexadecimal EBCDIC (Electronic Binary Coded Decimal Interchange Code) representation of the value. The hex value and its length depend on the item declaration.

• Description
  Displays additional information about the item.

When you hover the mouse cursor over an element in this view, a short description of the entry appears as a tooltip with information about the fields that are unique for the type of entry being viewed.
