|
|
Hi,
Using JBuilder X Foundation (nice tool!) and am going a little nuts as I
learn how to use it for a Masters class.
While debugging an applet project I was previously able to put the cursor
over a variable in code after a breakpoint and insight would pop up the
value of the variable. For some reason, with a new applet project, I can't
get it to do that and it's driving me slightly crazy.
Is there a setting somewhere that I've mangled, or did I just imagine that
this actually worked before? I know I can drill down into the debug window
to get at the value but that's a royal pain and I'm sure the debugger used
to happily pop the value up in a tool tip.
Any help would be appreciated!
Chris

Well, perhaps I was just sleep-deprived. I scanned more deeply through the
Help file and saw that Tool Tip insight during debugging is a feature of the
Developer and Enterprise versions only.
Does Borland offer academic or educational versions that include
full-featured debugging? I'm using it for grad school.
Cheers,
Chris

On the other hand, JB 2005 Foundation shows tooltips when you hover over
a variable during debugging.
So maybe you can upgrade to that.
(Don't forget to also install updates upto update 3 - mislabeled
"Application Server update").
