Debug > Modify Data

The Debug > Modify Data command changes the value of data. This command uses the Modify Data dialog box.

Modify Variable Dialog Box Fields:

Expression Field

In the Expression field, enter any Ada or C/C++ expression that identifies a scalar object or a register name (preceded by a dollar sign).

New Value Field

In the New Value field, enter a valid scalar expression or string you want to assign to the object specified in Expression. If it is an arithmetic expression, its final value must be of type Int (for C/C++) or type Integer for Ada) or type Float.

The type of New Value must be compatible with the type of Expression.

When a successful modification has been made, a message is displayed in the Debugger window:

If the modification cannot be made, an explanatory message (object not modifiable, undefined name, ...) is displayed in the Debugger window.

More information on modifying data can be found in Using the Apex Debugger.
