If I run the following code
Code: Select all
testEAV() :-
EAVDB = g_eavDB::new("SomeEav"), % creates a new database object
EAVDB:put_eavInt("Entity", "Attrib", 99),
EAVDB:put_eavStr("Entity", "Attrib1", "11"),
EAVDB:writeAsIni(stdio::outputStream),
nothing(""). % <== BREAKPOINT HERE
Code: Select all
test::testEAV()
EAVDB : g_eavDB = <UNKNOWN 047BEFA0>
Code: Select all
g_eavDB::put_eavInt(string Entity, string Attribute, integer Value)
This : g_eavDB = <UNKNOWN 047DEFA0>
A : string = "Attrib"
E : string = "Entity"
V : integer = 99
However, if I create a new VPI 8 project and put g_eavDB files in the project directory tree, then the debugger can "see" the variables in the created object from a breakpoint in the testEAV() clause.
% ADDENDUM COMMENT:
After going through all the above testing and documentation, including opening and closing the 7.5 and 8.0 IDEs several times, I took a break and when I reopened the suspect 8.0 project the debugger worked normally.
