Print array in Debugger console [message #1822662]

I searched in the documentation but I did not manage to find the answer.

Once the debug is paused user can print the content of a variable with print variable_name in the Debugger console.

In the case of an array, the command is the same print array_name but the listing is limited to 200 items only.

How can I set to print more items? In my case, I need to display 256 items for further processing in Octave.

Please see the attached image. In the debugger console window, there is an output of print array ending with item number 199, while in the Expressions tab, there is the same array with the resting 56 values.

Thank you for any help

Hello there,

I have found a solution. It took me almost a week to realize the variable export is not serviced by the Eclipse Debugger console but by the GDB.

How to print the content of an array with more than 200 items?

* you have to split the output into more chunks with a maximal length of 200 items

Let us say we have the array variable with 256 items:

> print array[0]@100
> print array[100]@156
