Watchpoints Panel
The Watchpoints Panel is a panel in the top-level Main Window.
The Watchpoints Panel displays a table of the currently set watchpoints.
Watchpoints are set in the Set Watchpoint Dialog.
Watchpoint events are recorded in the Events Panel.
table
Each row of the table represents a watchpoint. Each watchpoint has the following
attributes (which are the columns of the table).
[Shift] Click on a column header to sort the table in
[descending] ascending order according to that column.
- Object - the corresponding object ID of the particular object instance containing the
watchpoint field. Otherwise the string class will be displayed if a
watchpoint field is not constrained to a particular object instance.
Only watchpoints that are not constrained to a particular object instance,
are saved in the project settings.
- Class - the name of the class containing the watchpoint field.
A tool tip displays the full class name (including package names).
- Field - the name of the watchpoint field.
- Type - the type name of the watchpoint field.
- Trigger - the field value that will trigger the watchpoint.
- Access/Modification - the field access type that will trigger the watchpoint.
An access (read) watchpoint is displayed in purple.
A modification (write) watchpoint is displayed in red. The same color is
displayed in the Trigger column.
- Resolved - whether the watchpoint is currently resolved; that is,
the corresponding watchpoint class has been loaded by a class loader into the
target JVM, and the watchpoint has been successfully set.
The number before the "/" is the number of times the watchpoint has been
successfully resolved. The number after the "/" is the number of times the
watchpoint class has been loaded by a class loader. The table cell is displayed
in green, if all resolutions have been successful. The table cell is displayed
in red, if there has been at least one resolution error. The table cell is
displayed in orange (unresolved), if no corresponding watchpoint class has been
loaded in the target JVM.
A tool tip displays the class loader(s) that have loaded the watchpoint
class. If there was an error during resolution, the tool tip displays the
corresponding error message in red.
- Enabled - whether the watchpoint is currently enabled (checked) or
disabled (unchecked).
context menu
A popup Context Menu is displayed by right clicking on the table:
- Delete - deletes the selected (in the table) watchpoint.
The row will be deleted from the table.
- Unsort - returns the table data to its default order.
- Columns... - displays a dialog in which the User can hide
or show individual columns of the watchpoints table.
- Help... - displays this Help.
See the Watchpoints Menu in the menu bar
for menu items that operate on all of the watchpoints as a group.
