I am USING PL/SQL developer 7.0.1
I have one package.in that i have one Procedure
I put break point and trying to complie and debug a variable-The tool tip shows up -->(Not a variable)

I right clicked the package and ADD DEBUG INFORMATION .Still i have same problem.

Funny part is what ever referenced procedures i go and debug this is working fine..

Any one have solution for this?

There are some restriction to the variables that can be displayed. It is restricted to scalar variables, or collections of a scalar data type. For compound data types such as records or objects you can only display the individual fields or attributes (record.field or object.attribute).

The probelm is
i have declared a variable
lv_cnt NUMBER := 0; inside a procedure .
while debug The tool tip shows up lv_cnt is-->(Not a variable)

Is the procedure compiled for debug?

btw, why NUMBER and not INTEGER or PLS_INTEGER?

Is the variable already initialized when you inspect the value?

Yes the Variable is already initialized , my code complied perfectly.

To obtain some more diagnostic information, can you modify the shortcut and add the debugsql parameter? For example:

"C:\Program Files\PLSQL Developer\plsqldev.exe" debugsql

Reproduce the problem and send me the debug.txt file that is generated in the PL/SQL Developer directory.

I have the same problem.

not only regular variables seem not to be recognised, but none.. also "record.fieldname" I want to send the debug file you asked.. but how am I supposed to do that?

Is this a package? If so, can you explicitly add debug information to the package by right-clicking on it and selecting "Add debug information"? Retry the debugger after doing so.
