Description Stepan Doubrava 2008-06-03 15:11:48 UTC
http://xdesign-tools.czech.sun.com/projects/ss/NB6.1_review/index.php#i25

Suggested solution:
Name of the variable
Type of the result
Value of the result
String value of the result
Comment 1 _ gordonp 2008-06-03 16:22:23 UTC
I'd actually like to remove this column. I gave a brief try during 6.0 or 6.1 (I forget
which) and couldn't easily do it. In C/C++ development it serves no purpose. It displays
the same information that the value field does. The best I could easily do was to disable
it by default.

So it doesn't need rewording, it needs removal!
Comment 2 Stepan Doubrava 2008-06-16 16:11:16 UTC
I agree with removing the toString() row, but still we should consider renaming the others.
Comment 3 _ gordonp 2008-06-16 16:21:29 UTC
The suggested "Name of the variable" suggests a watch is always a variable. This isn't true and
a watch can be either a variable or expression.

I'm unlikely to get to this in NB 6.5. I'll discuss this with you when I do get to this issue.
I'd rather not spend time discussing names until I've got time to change what currently exists.

toString column is removed in:
http://hg.netbeans.org/cnd-main/rev/653fae66b7d1

as for wording - we use common debugger columns, so reassigning to debugger core
