Please see the linked screenshot: http://i.imgur.com/SpkXu5m.png As you can see, the inside, outside and collision arrays don't seem to work with the debugger. They show a bogus lenght and a bogus memory address. Extracting the lenghts to separate variables outl, insl and coll show that the arrays actually behave properly, though. Is that a debugger bug? Or maybe something I can fix? Thanks in advance. DMD 2.069.2, Mago debugger, VisualD 3.43, compiling for 32 bits if that makes a difference (can't get either 64 bit compilation or LDC to work)
One possible issue is that there are multiple variable declarations in the function with the names "outside, inside and collision". Dmd does not emit proper scope information for variables, so all variables show up anywhere in a function. (See for example https://github.com/D-Programming-Language/dmd/pull/2867).
In the locals window, mago displays all instances of variables, but with the same value (which might be some uninitialized value of a different declaration than expected). The Visual Studio debug engine shows different values, though.
