How do I "go to a line"?
When your compiler creates error messages, it usually displays a line number. While TotalView displays line numbers, there is no "Go to line number" command. Here's a hack:
Use the Edit > Find command and use the line number as the search string.
For example, suppose you're looking for line 100. Enter this number in the
dialog box and then press the Find button. Before you do this, make sure
you've selected something, anything in the Source Pane. This tells TotalView
where to look.
This procedure does have problems. In this case, TotalView finds the number
100 anywhere in your program. It could be a constant in your program, or it
could be line 1001 or 1100. You can make the search string a bit more precise
by adding a space or two after the number.
(Adding a "Go to line" command is on our "to do" list. Unfortunately, this list
is long.)
