XCode equivalent for command window in Visual studio.net

Question

Is there any equivalent in XCode for the command window in VisualStudio, in a way that lets me modify variables values while in debug mode (standing on a breakpoint), by evaluating expression, but not in read-only mode like the console.

Is there any?

i knew about the console, but didn't know about the "set expression" — LolaRun, Aug 22 '11 at 09:30

The console is not read-only if you're referring to the gdb session. You can use the 'set' command to set the values of variables in gdb. Try 'help set variable' for more info.

I've been using console for months now, i thought i could only use set for "set unwindonsign on" and "set call-po-at-unsafe-times" :D thanks a lot that's great news – LolaRun Aug 21 '11 at 23:24
