Does Eclipse have an analog to Visual Studio's "Immediate Window", a window where I can evaluate statements while in the debugger?
To clarify, you can highlight some code within the debugger and hit ctrl+shift+i or right-click->inspect to see the evaluation of the code

Eclipse has a really cool concept call Scrapbook Pages where you can evaluate statements even when you're not debugging. However, if you want to eval code using values from the current program, go to Window->Show View->Expressions. There you can put in any expression you want and track it as your program executes.

Yes. The view name is "Display".
Window->Show View->Other It is under the Debug folder.
Once in there you evaluate statements while in the debugger.

i would recommend updating this as the correct answer as it is much closer to the immediate window than the "expressions view".
