Unable to see memory location of vector in watch window in VS 2008

[walla]

Hello,
I just wrote a couple lines of code to see how the memory of vector variable is and I cant seems to make it show in the watch window.

	vector<BYTE> buf;
	buf.push_back('b');
	buf.push_back('1');
	buf.push_back('2');
	buf.push_back('3');
	vector<BYTE> * bufPtr = &buf;

I tried to put both bufPtr and &buf in the watch window and non of them shows me the real pointer to the memory location.
Thanks for any help

&buf[0]

should get what you want.
If you intend to use it in a program, you'd be, generally, better off, with a vector<BYTE>::iterator .

This is not what I wanted.
I don't want pointer to the allocation it does to store the data.
I want a pointer to the actual vector structs in the memory, where it keeps all its members and etc'
Thanks
