FIX: Expansion of Object References Displays a Blank Line

Q116463

1.00 1.50 1.51 WINDOWS kbtool kbfixlist kbbuglist ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The information in this article applies to: - The Visual Workbench Integrated Debugger included with: Microsoft Visual C++ for Windows, versions 1.0, 1.5, and 1.51 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- SYMPTOMS ======== When trying to expand a reference to an object in the watch or locals window of the Visual Workbench or CodeView, the expansion may consist of only a blank line. RESOLUTION ========== To work around the problem, cast the reference (in the watch window) as a pointer to the class. For example, if you are trying to expand a reference defined as "CRect &rect", place a watch on the expression "(CRect*)rect" (without the quotes). The debugger should be able to expand this expression. STATUS ====== Microsoft has confirmed this to be a bug in the products listed at the beginning of this article. This problem was correct in Visual C++ for Windows, version 1.52. Additional reference words: 1.00 1.50 KBCategory: kbtool kbfixlist kbbuglist KBSubcategory: WBDebug
