I tried this on JDK1.2, JDK1.3, the standard JRE, and J9 using the latest code base. In all cases, this worked for me - the variable appears after I step over the declaration, and remains until the method is exited. I did verifty that when using build 20011025, I get the described problem. Please re-try in build 20011101 when available. Still a problem in 20011101. Woops - I was fooled by having the wrong view in the foreground (breakpoints view instead of variables view). This does work for me in 20011101. |
Eclipse 20011025 Windows 2000 1) Create the class included below. 2) Place a breakpoint as described in the comments of the code. 3) Run in the debugger. public class _Scrapbook { public static void main(String[] args) { _Scrapbook app = new _Scrapbook(); app.doit(); } void doit() { Object object = this; // put breakpoint here !!! do { System.out.println("asdads"+object); object.toString(); } while (false); } } The line "Object object = this;" assigns to the variable 'object' but then when you step into the do loop, the variable does not appear in the Variables view. When you step over the println statement, then 'object' appears in the Variables view. I asked Olivier to investigate and he said the ranges returned are valid.
