Recently I discovered that it's possible to declare variables in the Visual Studio immediate window while debugging. This feature is really useful because if I want to experiment with the code in that context, I can create new variables without modifying the real code in the new window, and I can then explore them in the watch window.
This works great for a C# project I have been debugging, but now I'm trying to do the same thing for a basic C++ declaration in a different project. I break at my breakpoint, and type the following into the immediate window:
int myVariable;
This gives the error:
CXX0013: Error: missing operator
Are there any steps that I need to get this to work with a C++ project?
