Examine pointers

You can examine pointer contents by clicking the + next to the variable or expression. This expands the item and dereferences the pointer.

In the Evaluate window, you can also use the View As Vector, Get Address, and Dereference Pointer menu items:

• Dereference Pointer wraps the expression in *().
• Get Address strips a single layer of *() from the expression (if one exists).
• Both Get Address and Dereference Pointer only support raw pointers and not other pointer implementations, such as, C++11 smart pointers.
