Well, doesn't FPC evaluates expressions - so why can't a debugger? Also, couldn't Michael new Expression Parser help here? As for the properties issue. That's a personal preference of the 'core team' as far as I know. Delphi and Kylix supports debugging Properties (even with the "possible" data changing issue) - yet I haven't seen a single posting of a Delphi developer complaining about that possible data change issue. The pros far outweigh the cons. Hopefully Dmitry could solve these problems with Duby. I haven't evaluated Duby is some months, but last time I did check, it made good progress. I guess it's time I get another code update.
