- Description
Consider that a session is saved*1 with symbols being entered in
the C Watch window. When this session is opened or refreshed*2, the
correct symbol name may not be displayed.
This problem occurs if symbol names are entered in any of the following ways:
- An element of an array is specified using square brackets ([ ]).
Example: a[0]
- A member of a structure or union is specified using a period (.).
Example: str.a
- The destination of a pointer is pointed to using a right arrow (->).
Example: pstr->a
- A pointer specifier (& or *) is used.
Example: &a or *a
For the above examples, the symbol names are all represented by "a".
