In a C++ project stop the debugger in the scope of a pointer holding the first location of an array: void foo(uint8_t * const bar){ [...] } Add a watch expression casting the pointer to an array of a specific size s, where s>10, e.g.: "(uint8_t[500])bar" The watch window correctly displays the content of the array, but the order of the elements is in alphabetical order of the array index: * (uint8_t[500])bar[0] * (uint8_t[500])bar[10] * (uint8_t[500])bar[11] * [...] It should be in numerical order: * (uint8_t[500])bar[0] * (uint8_t[500])bar[1] * (uint8_t[500])bar[2] * [...]
I just realized that a click to the "Name" column header seems to toggle the ordering behaviour (numerical <-> alphabetical). That's nice and seems to handle this case very well. For me this renders this ticket superfluous. Sorry for the noise.
O.K. Thanks.
