The dv command displays the names and values of all local variables in the current scope.

Syntax

dv [Flags] [Pattern] 

Parameters

Flags

Pattern

Causes the command to only display local variables that match the specified Pattern. The pattern may contain a variety of wildcards and specifiers; see String Wildcard Syntax for details. If Pattern contains spaces, it must be enclosed in quotation marks. If Pattern is omitted, all local variables will be displayed.

Environment

Comments

In verbose mode, the addresses of the variables are displayed as well. (This can also be done with the x (Examine Symbols) command.)

Data structures and unfamiliar data types are not displayed in full; rather, their type name is displayed. To display the entire structure, or display a particular member of the structure, use the dt (Display Type) command.

The local context determines which set of local variables will be displayed. By default, this context matches the current position of the program counter. For information about how this can be changed, see Local Context.
