Debug tool window

The available debug sessions are separated into tabs in the top part of the Debug tool window.

If you enable Services window for specific run/debug configurations, the entire view of the Debug window will be displayed inside the Services window when you debug any of these configurations.

All the information like inline variable values and execution point is shown for the selected session tab. This is important if you are running several debug sessions in parallel that use the same code.

note

When you close a tab, the corresponding session terminates.

Debug tool window shows the following tabs for each session:

• Frames: lets you navigate in call stacks of the threads.

• Variables: lists the variables available in the current context and lets you analyze and modify the program state.

• Watches: lets you manage watches. By default, watches are shown on the Variables tab for more efficient use of the screen space. If you have a lot of watches, consider viewing them in a separate tab.

• Debugger console: displays the GDB/LLDB output and error streams, and lets you run debugger commands.

• Threads: displays the list of live threads and lets you switch between them. From this tab, you can export threads information in text format.

• Memory View: shows raw memory of the running process.

• Parallel Stacks: shows thread call stack information for all the threads in your application.
