Displaying Array Slices
TotalView lets you display array subsections by editing the slice field within an array's Variable Window. (An array subsection is called a slice.) The slice field contains placeholders for all array dimensions. For example, here is a C declaration for a three-dimensional array:
integer ia[10][20][5]
TotalView defines this slice as [:][:][:].
Here is a Fortran 90 deferred shape array definition:
integer, dimension (:,:) :: ia
Its TotalView slice definition is (:,:).
As you can see, TotalView displays as many colons (:) as there are array dimensions. Initially, the field contains [:] for C arrays or (:) for Fortran arrays.
