CCS 6.1 How to set global variables for watching ?

Ralph Deffke

Hi there,


in the Variable view are buttons inactive for setting global variable watching. Where and how can I have these buttons available ?


I need to watch an array I have declared in global scope. How to achieve this ?

Thank you

    Ralph,

    I've never used this 'Add Global Variable' button in the Variables view. I usually add global variables to the 'Expressions' view. Just open the Expressions view window, select 'Add new expression' and type in your variable name. Another method is to select your variable directly in source code, right-click and choose 'Add watch expression...' in the context menu.


    Best regards,

    Manfred

    Ralph, Manfred,

    This button is part of the Eclipse IDE and its activation or complete removal has been discussed for quite a while now on this bug report.

    At this moment Manfred's suggestion is the one to be followed.

    Regards,
