Visual Studio 2019, Linaro GCC for ARM 7.4.1 targeting Linux on a ‘Bone.
The code contains a typedef-ed pointer to an unsigned char, and the GDB Session history correctly shows the value as 0xB2DD0000, but the tooltip in VS and the value displayed in the Local Variables window show only the lower byte of 0x00, as if the display routine is applying the BYTE type rather than the pointer type.
No problem, we have reviewed the related logic and found a possible cause. Please try this build: VisualGDB-5.5.1.3330.msi
If it doesn’t help, please send us a full gdb log and we will do a deeper investigation.
Same issue, I’m afraid. It’s not a VisualGDB project so I can’t capture a log that way. (It’s build using an in-house tool that redirects VC to use GCC.) But I’ve attached the GDB interactions captured from the debug window, and also a capture of the Local Variables window showing the issue.
Sorry about that and thanks for the log. It looks like the pointer size did get queried correctly, so it’s hard to say what is going on.
We have added more logging to this build: VisualGDB-5.5.1.3331.msi
Please try enabling View->Other Windows->VisualGDB Diagnostics Console and reproduce the problem. Then attach the lines starting from “Parsing ‘<expression>'” and we should be able to understand what is going on and provide a hotfix.
