Description Alexander Pepin 2010-02-24 08:42:44 UTC
Steps to reproduce:
- run IDE with debug.engine=on option
- create Welcome sample
- set build tools to GNU and debugger to gdb (or "Same As Tool Collection")
- do Step into
- open Variables
- expand "argv" variable
Result: Currently in NB IDE (CND) argv is shown as a char* array but in SS IDE it's shown as just a char**.
 It looks like a regression from NB user's point of view.
