variable context

[forall]

also...

in CVF in the watch window there was a pulldown menu for the "context", allowing the user to see variables/code in different subprograms.

In the new Intel compiler this feature appears absent, which certainly complicates debugging. Is there some other way to achieve this effect?

thanks

It's there - just in a different part of the screen.

[forall]

I spent about 30mins trying to find this 'different' part of the screen. Any chance I could get instructions on how to bring it up?
At the moment when debugging I have the following 'tools' open: 'local' and 'watch1'. Perhaps I need to bring up another 'tool' (which I tried to find but could not).
thanks.

View/Toolbars/Debug Location -> Stack Frame combo.

[forall]

I see, thanks. But I do note that instead of compactly displaying the name of the subprogram whose variables will be displayed, the new stack frame combo displays a much longer and less intuitive list of variables. What was wrong with the cvf-style context selection??

That's the MSVC6 style. Microsoft changed it. It's not controlled by IVF (nor CVF).
