Inspecting the result of evaluating an expression

Inspecting shows the result of evaluating an expression in the Expressions view.

  1. In the scrapbook page, either type an expression or highlight an existing expression to be inspected. For example: System.getProperties();

  2. Click the Inspect button in the toolbar (or select Inspect from the selection's pop-up menu).

  3. The result of the inspection appears in a pop-up. 

  4. The result can be inspected like a variable in the debugger (for example, children of the result can be expanded).
