Please review the fix of bug https://netbeans.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=242091 Description: When the source code (e.g. JDK sources) is compiled without -g option, variable information is not available in class files. The bug suggest, that this fact should be reported more expressively. The message "Variable information not available, source compiled without -g option" should be more visible in Variables window and tooltip and variable value that says "<variable> is not a known variable in the current context." is not much helpful to realize why debugger does not find it. Solution: We display the warning message "Variable information not available, source compiled without -g option" in red bold so that it can not be missed. The tooltip and value message is changed to better describe what's going on. Impact assesment: Usability Risk: Very low The bugfix was reviewed and verified. http://hg.netbeans.org/main-silver/rev/cd497a606726 Thanks, Martin
