I started to write this yesterday and then thought I abandoned the bug report. I am not sure how it got submitted. In any event, since it is here, I will give it a bit of a summary; it is a real problem that happens to me on a routine basis. It has been happening for a long time (using the dailies). However, I have never figured out how to reproduce it effectively. Yesterday, I had thought I had it figured out, but when that turned out not to be the case, I gave up (or thought I had) on my report. What happens is that I will be working along just fine, maybe running my app, and then I will decided to put a break point somewhere. Sometimes it works. However, sometimes I click in the gutter nothing happens. Clicking more times does not help. But, if I just click in the editor window once and then back in the gutter and my break point is added. IMHO this is a duplicate of issue #216601. Please reopen if this happens with a different use-case. We'd be hardly able to fix this without knowing when it happens. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 216601 *** I totally agree. I was having trouble reproducing it because I was looking at the wrong things. I can't say for sure, of course, but I am comfortable with the assessment that it is 216601. Thanks. |
