'Unable to view locals in Eclipse + EPIC
I just installed the Perl EPIC plugin for Eclipse 3.7. The debugger itself is working fine and I can step through my code. However I am unable to see any variables. Eclipse is reporting this error in the Error Log:
An error occurred while parsing debugger variables; contents of the Variables view may be inaccurate. Failure caused by string: {NS00000003$^AS00000002''NS00000003$^DS000000010NS00000003$^ES00000043'The system could not find the environment option that was entered'NS00000003$^FS000000012NS00000003$^HS00000003256NS00000003$^LS00000003''NS00000003$^OS00000009'MSWin32'NS00000003$^PS00000003831NS00000010$^RE_TRIE_MAXBUFS0000000565536NS00000003$^SS000000011NS00000007$^TAINTS000000010NS00000009$^UNICODES000000010NS00000003$^VS00000007v5.10.0
There's a whole lot more which is just a bit much to be posting here so I've posted it over on PasteBin here:
My perl script is pretty basic stuff:
$x = "hello world";
print "$x";
I'm running:
- Eclipse 3.7
- EPIC 0.5.46 - downloaded and installed via the Eclipse software manager from http://www.epic-ide.org/updates/
- ActiveState Perl: v5.10.0 built for MSWin32-x86-multi-thread
- Windows 7 Ultimate x64
I've made sure PadWalker is installed and working properly.
I also checked to make sure this wasn't an issue and it isn't (Cwd.pm is fixed).
What could be wrong?
Solution 1:[1]
As a wild guess, I'd suggest checking to make sure the location of your perl.exe is specified to Eclipse, and that your %PATH% variable references it. If you're unable to solve the issue, I'd highly recommend Padre (http://padre.perlide.org). Best of luck.
Solution 2:[2]
You have to install the "testing" EPIC version. version 6.41
