Mac Forum / Programming / CodeWarrior / December 2005

Hi,

   I am using CodeWarrior Development Studio 10.0 on Mac G5 with Mac OS
10.4. I found that when I try to look at the field of 'struct' variable in
"Expressions Window" the whole CodeWarrior application crashes. This does
not happen in CodeWarrior 9.6. The crash does NOT occur in CW10 if you look
at the field in a "Variables: All" window. I will try to describe the steps
that lead to crash.

1. Take or create any new c++ program.

2. add the following line at the top of main file:

   struct test {
       char *s;
   } v;

3. Add this line in "main()" function:

   v.s = "test";

4. Set debugger break point at line:

   v.s = "test";

5. Execute "Debug" menu command, i.e. start debugging.

6. When main debugger window appears open "Expressions Window"

7. Highlight variable "v", from above, and "Copy To Expression"

8. In "Expressions" window expend variable "v" to display its field, i.e. to
show field "s" and its value.

9. Execute "Step Over" menu command. At this time my CW 10 crashes.

Is there something wrong with CW version 10 or am I doing something wrong?

Thanks for any suggestion in advance,
Leonid.
