can not inspect php variables under debug

[jcomet]

I am fairly new to Phalanger. I have a working project. I thought that I used to be able to inspect PHP variables under debug, but I can not now. When I do now, I get the message "The Name '$myvariable' does not exist in the current context."

I have some aspx pages in the same project, and I can see those object values in debug ok.

Hi,

I guess You are using Watch window.

Currently we are working on PHP-like debugger (will be available within few weeks). What You see in Watch/Locals/Autos/CallStack during Debug is actually default .NET representation, not reflecting PHP syntax.

So for example names cannot be typed with '$' prefix.

I suggest for now to use Locals Window.

Thanks Jakub - that helped a lot.
