I overheard a conversation in a class the other day about someone being able to "look" into various classes and data storage types and see what is being stored as you run the program.

I understand this can be done using the traditional ways of adding breakpoints and such, but the way the person was describing it seemed to be a lot more interactive. He mentioned "I can open a window for this class and monitor the data being stored in it". Does anyone know what he uses? I would have asked, but I haven't seen him again.

Thanks.

I've never seen any GUI apps that do it but GDB is an extremely powerful debugger, that might have been what he was using.

Yes, I think he was using a microsoft product. Do you have to have the studio or C++ express will do?

Thank you.

The Visual C++ Express debugger is fully functional.
