  <title>Watch expressions</title>

  <p>Watch expressions, or watches for short, are expressions that the debugger
  evaluates and prints the result of every time the program is stopped; for
  example, after every <link xref="debug-step">single-step</link>
  through the program.</p>

  <section>
    <title>List watched expressions</title>

    <steps>
      <item>
        <p>From the <gui>main menu</gui>, select <guiseq><gui>View</gui>
        <gui>Watches</gui></guiseq> to open the <gui>Watches</gui>
        window.</p>
      </item>
    </steps>

    <p>Like local variables, all watch expressions are displayed in a tree with children used to
    represent structure or array members.</p>
  
    <terms>
      <item>
        <title>Variabel</title>
        <p>The name of the variable or the expression.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <title>Värde</title>
        <p>The variable or expression value.</p>
      </item>
      <item>
        <title>Typ</title>
        <p>The type of the variable or of the expression result.</p>
      </item>
    </terms>
  </section>

  <section>
    <title>Uppdatera bevakare</title>

    <p>Watch expressions can be updated automatically as soon as the
    program is stopped or on user request.</p>

    <p>To set a watch expression to update automatically:</p>

        update automatically. Right-click and check that <gui>Automatic Update</gui>
        if checked. If not, select it.</p>
      </item>
    </steps>

    <p>To update a watch expression manually:</p>

    <steps>
      <item>
        <p>In the <gui>Watches</gui> window, right click and select <gui>Update Watch</gui> to
        update the selected watch.</p>
      </item>

      <item>
        <p>In the <gui>Watches</gui> window, right click and select <gui>Update all</gui> to

      </item>
