ILOG JRules User Guide > Running and Debugging > Tasks > Debugging > Inspecting the Working Memory

When you debug a rule project or a Java project for rules, and when the execution mode is RetePlus, you can inspect the objects in the working memory.

To inspect the working memory:

  1. Click Run > Debug. The Debug dialog box opens.
  2. Select your configuration in the Configurations area.
  3. Make sure the Stop at first rule statement box is selected, and then click Debug. The Debug Perspective opens, and execution stops at the first rule statement to be executed.
  4. From this point, step into the execution statements, and make sure the Working Memory view is open.

When objects are added into the working memory, they appear in the Working Memory view. When you expand objects, you can inspect their values.
