Here's a feature request.

When I'm looking at a large/huge char[] in the snapshot, I'd like to
save the contents to a file.

:-) Believe it or not, just today I was working on this feature... I will
commit it to the repository tomorrow. Can I win you over to do some beta
testing? I could provide you with a newly build version.

Hi Andreas,

I'd say: "Can *I* win *you* over to do some beta testing" :)
My only request is to download a packaged release from somewhere, since
I don't have the time/patience to build myself.

Cheers,
-tt

I'm also trying to find a way to save a large byte[] to a file so that I
can examine the contents. Was this feature committed? I don't see a way
to do it in version 0.7.0.200810081028.

Hi John, you are right. I added the functionality to export character
based objects, i.e. char[], Strings, StringBuffer, etc. The value is
written into a text file. If you select multiple objects, the content of
all of them is written into the file.

But I now realize that we also need something else: exporting primitive
arrays into a binary file in such a way that they can be read using
java.io.DataInputStream. Currently that is not possible.

If you are interested, add yourself to Bug 249654 which is tracking this
feature request.

Andreas.
