Here’s a little feature of Visual Studio’s debugger for C++. Consider the following code:

void foo( int* aiMyIntegerArray ){

…

}

void goo(){

int aiMyInts[5];

…

foo(aiMyInts);

}

If you set a breakpoint inside of the function foo and then do a QuickWatch on the aiMyIntegerArray argument, you only see the first element in the array, even though there are 4 more sneaky little integers in there. So to uncover the “hidden” integers, use the following in the QuickWatch expression evaluator:

aiMyIntegerArray,5
