Create new WebApplication set breakpoint into index.jsp and invoke debug on index.jsp server is started, app deploy, debugger stop on breakpoint show variables view - "Enter new Watch" line is missing - is this intentional? right click variables window, invoke add Watch - type some expression, press OK -> no Watch is created while switching debugging into Java class, I can see the watch that I've created in JSP page - it seems watches are not shown while debugging JSP pages
I'm trying the same scenario in 6.5.1 -> Watches window was separated from Variables, but it was possible to add a watch in JSP page correctly -> it's a regression of 6.7
Cc'ing Martin - do you have any ideas, Martin? Thanks.
It looks like watches are not added into Variables window at all while debugging JSP. When extra Watches window is opened (un-toggling "Show watches inside Variables view" button), all watches are shown and work correctly. Dane, can you please look at this?
According to an offline talk with dprusa I am reassigning this issue to debugger where the fix potentially needed also by other debuggers needs to be done.
Fixed. http://hg.netbeans.org/main/rev/42aee1317fec
