Step to reproduce: - create any C/C++ project, e.g. Welcome - Click on Debug in Main Menu bar Result: "Step Into" menu item is disabled.
It's a regression in 7.0 in comparison with 6.5
The issue is reproducible on all platforms if only C/C++ module is installed. It's not reproducible if JavaSe module is installed as well.
It seems to be no urgency in fixing this issue in 7.0M2.
Downgraded to P3 as it's unclear what behavior is correct. In other words should the menu item be enabled or not as it has an icon like a toolbar button which is working only while a valid debug session whereas a Project context menu item "Step Into" always starts a new debug session.
