Hexadecimal view

For numerical variables of integer types, you can examine hexadecimal representation instead or alongside the original formatting.

Hex view for integer types is available for both GDB and LLDB debuggers on all platforms, including the remote debug case and WSL.

Enable hex view

  1. Go to Settings | Build, Execution, Deployment | Debugger | Data Views | C/C++.

  2. Set the Show integers as hex values checkbox and choose to have the hex values displayed instead or alongside the original view:
