Hello!

Not long ago I switched from Visual Studio 2013 to new Visual Studio 2015. Everything went good, compiling and working on it, is much faster then before. Few new diagnostic tools, great! But... I have ugly problem which destroys everything. When I run my problem with debuger, breaks somwhere in the code, and try to look on my string variable, I can't see it's content. Instead of it, I see npos value=4294967295 and two (error) = 0. Other types of variables, even from my class works fine. Does anyone have same problem or know how to fix it?

Thanks!

Are you debugging a release or otherwise optimized version of your program? Optimizations can make it hard for debuggers to find variables in memory (assuming they haven't been removed entirely or their memory re-used by another variable whose lifetime doesn't overlap)

No, i use proper (not modified, setup from installation) debug compilation. Even when I create new project with simple "Hello World" variable it doesn't work...

I've been seeing this with VS 2015 community, too, but only with std::wstring. std::string seems to work as expected. I would be interested in an answer to this as well.

Microsoft Connect is the proper place to raise these issues, as that will get you feedback from Microsoft itself, and also get a bug logged in their tracker in case something is genuinely wrong with VS and needs to be fixed in their code.
