Missing memory dump in debug windows

I'm rather new to Lazarus. In Delphi (old versions),
there is a memory dump available under View/Debug Windows/CPU.

In Lazarus I only found View/Debug windows/Assembler
with assembler, but no hex memory dump.

Am I missing something or there is no such option?

There is currently no memory dump window (it is on the todo, but with
lots of other stuff)

you can enter a watch, and change it to output a memory dump. But it
will usually only dump the amount of data used by the watched type.
(use it together with the watch window extended side panel = last
button on toolbar)

In addition to Martin's suggestion above, you can also try one of
these:

1. Debug your executable using MS Visual Studio.  This thread gives
you an idea of how it's done https://forum.lazarus.freepascal.org/inde
x.php/topic,42000.msg295128.html#msg295128

2. Use Process Hacker 2 to view the process memory.  Free download,
nice, very useful utility.

One, perhaps can also try
https://github.com/AlexanderBagel/ProcessMemoryMap/releases

1.1.15 Release is old but stable

v1.3.19-beta is promising but on my win7x64 crashes on half the
processes
