Wrong variable or address

[prometheusAmb]

If I type in variable name during debug I get the above message "Wrong variable or address", although the variable has been defined and it exists. Therefore I cannot see the value of the variable.

Probably you should select the correct values in the drop-down lists according to the variable type or add the variable via the context menu.

Thanks for your response. I have tried both methods but they are not working

Ok, if the issue still be actual, please provide the version of SASM, OS, Settings->Build tab screenshot, the source code and the variable you want to watch.

Try use such options "$PROGRAM.OBJ$ -g -o $PROGRAM$ -m elf_i386" to fix the problem.
