New Watches Window - No derefencing of pointers?
« on: July 01, 2014, 06:47:03 am »
Ive recently upgraded from Codeblocks version 10.05 to 13.12

I did some debugging and noticed the Watches window has changed

I remember that in the old watches window i was able to dereference struct pointers to see their contents, it seems that i cant do that here

Is there a way around this in codeblocks?

It works as before, so you have to either:
1. add a dereferenced variable
2. add the pointer then select it, right click and the select the "Dereference XXX" menu item.

As far as I remember old watches window works similarly.
