Debugging std::vectors

Original Post

I''m using MSVC 6.0 and std::vector on a custom struct. I am able to see the first struct in the watch window using this: (*m_Vector._First) Is there a way to see the second, third, etc in the debug window without changing my code?

(*m_Vector._First+1) should do it.

Nope. I can do (*m_Vector._First++) but in Visual Studio this actually changes the value of the "_First" var and this is not desirable.

Oh yeah I hadn''t noticed the *. You''re dereferencing it that''s why it changes the value. (m_Vector._First+1) should do it. It works with my compiler.
