Description Paul Webster

I'm running RC2 on Linux-GTK.  I have a Java perspective that shows the Debug, Breakpoints, and variable views.

I'm launching a debugging of eclipse, and hit one of my conditional breakpoints.  The debug view shows the stack, allows me to step over/step into, and shows me the source as I click on the stack.

But the variables view is empty.  It won't show me "this" or any local variables.

I've tried closing the view and using Show View to re-open it, but it's still blank.  The only other perpective I have open is the CVS Repo one, and the debug views are not visible in that perspective.

Strangely enough, I clicked in the view and chose "Select All" from the popup menu.  I "pasted" in my xterm window which gave me my old X selection, and the view suddenly was full of data :-)

This sounds like an update problem similar to bug 139262. However, we don't see the problem happening on Linux (just Mac). What flavour of Linux/GTK are you using?

When I debug to a breakpoint, close the Var view, and re-open, the view does not populate (GTK). When I select other frames, it remains empty. When I select a thread, and then back to a stack frame, it populates.

I think this is caused by bug 139853.
