problem watching variables in debug mode

[idhan]

Hi,

I have some problems to watch the value of variables in debug mode, I only can see globlal variables values,
but if a variable has been declare inside of a method or function, I always get:

Not simbol "myvariable" in the current context

Any idea why?

[Edit] Kubunt 8.10 - Codeblocks 8.02 - gcc (Ubuntu 4.3.2-1ubuntu12) 4.3.2

A simple test case is need. If you want further help.

Here is an example, I want to see the value of the variable sStringHandle declare at the beginning and watch it trought the process.

        Ogre::String sStringHandle; <----------- BREAK POINT

        #ifdef _WINDOW
sStringHandle = Ogre::StringConverter::toString((unsigned long)mpOgreCanvas->GetHandle())
#elif defined(__WXGTK__)
// TODO: Someone test this. you might to use "parentWindowHandle" if this
// does not work.  Ogre 1.2 + Linux + GLX platform wants a string of the
// format display:screen:window, which has variable types ulong:uint:ulong.
GtkWidget* widget = (GtkWidget*)mpOgreCanvas->wxWindow::GetHandle();
gtk_widget_realize( widget ); // Mandatory. Otherwise, a segfault happens.
std::stringstream handleStream;
Display* display = GDK_WINDOW_XDISPLAY( widget->window );
Window wid = GDK_WINDOW_XWINDOW( widget->window ); // Window is a typedef for XID, which is a typedef for unsigned int
/* Get the right display (DisplayString() returns ":display.screen") */
std::string displayStr = DisplayString( display );
displayStr = displayStr.substr( 1, ( displayStr.find( ".", 0 ) - 1 ) );
/* Put all together */
handleStream << displayStr << ':' << DefaultScreen( display ) << ':' << wid;
sStringHandle = handleStream.str();   <----------- AFTER THIS LINE I SHOULD  SEE THE VALUE
#else
#error Not supported on this platform.

        #endif

        Ogre::NameValuePairList tdParams;
        tdParams["externalWindowHandle"] = sStringHandle;

I am in linux so the GTK part is running. The break point is at the sStringHandle's declaration and I debug trough each line but I always get: "Not simbol "sStringHandle" in the current context". I use namespaces in my project, should that be a problem??, here is the configuration for my cbp codeblocks project.

I have found a strange behavior using ogre and codeblocks in debug mode... the following pictures shows two examples of this issue:




I have test wxWidgets and I don't have the problem, after I combine Ogre with wxWidgets the issue appears. The wrong information display concerns the ogre-log system. I don't know if this is the problem why i cann't see any local variables correctly. I'm moving my project now to Netbeans for more testing.

Thanks for any advice in this matter...
