Watch window buffer clearing support

Hello

I am using ccs 3.3. It will be a very useful feature, if I can select any range by dragging the cursor in watch window and right click for the context menu to zero out the entire buffer. Now we have double-click on each location and type desired value. Such a feature will be very helpful while debugging.

Also, while debugging, if I close the project, the watch windows (with variables associated with only that project) are left open. So are the message window messages. Once the project is closed, both of them are out of context and should also be closed. Correct?

I hope you find the need valid.

Thanks

Sayee

    You can use the 'Edit->Memory->Fill' feature to fill a block of memory. It will be easier than selecting each location and typing in the value.

    The watch window can be left open. It gets the information from the loaded symbols (not the project). The message window, it depends on the content. If it is build output, then yes, it would not apply.
