Hi!

I just installed 3.5.1 java-ee (galileo SR1) and see in the Java debugger that when I point with mouse over a variable in the source code, a popup appears, but unlike in older versions it does not show the variable value, but its type and method in which it is declared.

How to switch to "display value" function?
I searched the preferences, but did not find anything.

Regards,
David

PS: The actual package I installed is : http://www.eclipse.org/downloads/download.php?file=/technolo gy/epp/downloads/release/galileo/SR1/eclipse-jee-galileo-SR1 -win32.zip

I also installed the SVN plugin (subversive).

Are you sure that the appropriate stack frame is selected and "active"
in the Debug view when you hover the mouse on the desired variable?

Yes, because the "Variables" view is showing the "this" object and all local variables.

Funny, now I tried and now it works !?
Hope it stays that way...
