Hello everybody,
I am beginner to C++ programming with Eclipse IDE for C/C++ Developers (CDT 8.0 for Eclipse Indigo). I run Eclipse with MinGW and Qt on Windows XP. The GNU GDB version in 7.2. The GNU make version is 3.81.
When I follow the steps of Help>C/C++ Development User Guide > Getting Started> Debugging a project, I cannot find Change Value when by right clicking the input variable.

There is the snap shot

I have search the online help at h ttp://preview.tinyurl.com/3wt4sg9I just says to find the Change Value through context menu. May some kind people help me to find this option? Thank you very much for your help.


ps. Iccanot post direct link because the forum system does not allow me to do it.

Hello all. I am having exact same problem.
Could anyone give me a clue why this "Change Value" feature is not available in the variable debug window?

In the Variables View just click into the value cell. Then you can change the value.

Before you ask
- search this forum
- see the FAQ http://wiki.eclipse.org/CDT/User/FAQ
- google

Thanks Axel, I tried that but it doesn't work.
I can change the value in the cell but it doesn't change the variable and I see the value entered in the console next time I run.
