Debug the following code:

public class Foo {
  private Object object;
}

public class Bar extends Foo {
  private Object object = new Object();
  public static void main(String[] args) {
    new Bar().foo();
  }
  private void foo() {
    System.out.print(object); // BREAKPOINT here
  }
}

After hitting the breakpoint, the hover for "object" will show "null" as its 
value (which is the value of the super classes field).
