variables not showing up with `"valuesFormatting": "parseText"`

Running remote to a gdbserver (v9.1) on arm but my variables does not show up. If I use gdb cli I can print the variable names. Noticed the following error message;

The variable itself has the following text next to it: “Invalid variable attributes”.

A notification popping up says the following;

A syntax error in expression, near `'. (from data-evaluate-expression --thread 1 --frame 0 static_cast)

Not sure what goes wrong, but “disabled” and prettyPrinters works. Here is the output when running with parseText.

Another issue (not related to variables), is that I cannot de-select a breakpoint. I can delete the breakpoint from debug shell, but not untick it in the UI (the bp is still active even though not clinked in the UI).

I guess a plain p yourvar in the debug console works, too, doesn’t it? Otherwise there would be a bigger problem.

Yes always.
