Source Window Colors

Question

When I look at code in the Source Window, what do the different colors mean?

Answer

In HLL (High Level Language) Mode:
  • the lines with blue numbers and black text are from code generating lines of source code
  • the lines with gray numbers and green text are from non-code generating lines of source code 
  • the line with the purple background means that the address of the PC is between the address of this HLL line and the next

In Mixed Mode:

  • the lines with blue numbers and text are from code generating lines of source code (note that non-code generating lines of source code are not shown in Mixed Mode)
  • the lines with black addresses and text are the assembly level code
  • the line with the brownish background means that the address of the PC is not on an assembly level instruction boundary

In Code Mode:

  • the lines with black addresses and text are the assembly level code
  • the line with the brownish background means that the address of the PC is not on an assembly level instruction boundary

In all modes:

  • the line with the blue background is the currently selected line
  • the line with the green background is the line at address of the current PC
  • the line with the yellow background means the line at the address of the current PC is the currently selected line
