Bug: variables not properly updating while debugging

[Jason King]

When debugging, if I come to a breakpoint within a loop and expand my "this" variable to view appropriate member variables.  If I hit F5 to continue then when it hits the breakpoint again, it will show the previous state of the expanded "this" variable.

Cheers,

OK - I've an idea as to what's causing that. We'll get back to you in a day or so.

Hi Jason,

I thought I might be able to see where this was going wrong but when I come to try it it seems to work for me. I've used this code:

Code:

package {

public class C1 {

private var x:int;

public function C1(){}

public function test():void {
var i:int = 10;

while(i > 0) {
this.x = i;
i -= 1;
}
}
}

}

If I set a breakpoint on 'i -= 1', the 'this' variable's x value is updated as shown in the Locals Window. Can you post a (small) example where it doesn't get updated?

Thanks,

Dermot
