I have downloaded the bundle Netbeans plus Java 6 release 12. When using the debugger, the local variables do not display at all in the columns "Type" and "Value" for instance. Only if I click in a "Value" cell will it repaint and show the information. If I click in the "Type" cell, nothing paints. However if I point Netbeans to use Java 6 release 11 in the config file used to start Netbeans , then all is well... FYI: I have noticed the same problem on Mac OSX, Windows XP (32-bit), Vista (32 and 64 bit).
Where did you get the bundle from? It was replaced by JDK 6 Update 11 + NetBeans 6.5 at http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp due to this and several other problems. We're preparing an update to NB 6.5 that will fix this. Use JDK 6u11 as a workaround till patched NB 6.5 is out. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 157300 ***
Verified ... and Closing all issues resolved into NetBeans 6.7 and earlier.
