Description Andrei Chistiakov 2010-07-20 12:07:56 UTC 
Created attachment 100930 [details]
sample application

Product Version: NetBeans IDE 6.9.1 Dev (Build 201007192301)
Java: 1.6.0_16; Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 14.2-b01
System: Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86; Cp1251; ru_RU (nb)

To reproduce:

- open the attached project
- open Main.fx, switch to Source
- set breakpoint at line 43
- debug the application
- while application is running, press Button button in application's window
- when execution stops at the breakpoint, open Watches window and add expressions 'abc' to evaulate

Note that the value of the expression is not displayed either in Watches or in Variables window

Also please note that the expression can't be edited inline the way it was created, double-clicking on it doesn't open inline editor
Comment 1 Michal Skvor 2010-08-03 13:30:41 UTC 
Due to lack on partial code evaluation in the JavaFX Script compilation tree is impossible to create this feature.
Comment 2 David Strupl 2011-05-16 13:53:13 UTC 
Closing all bugs filed against JavaFX 1.x as wontfix. We will support JavaFX 2.0 - please keep opened only bugs against the new release. Thanks.
