    Description

      Qt Creator 4.3.0 shows the following output in Locals and Expressions when inspecting a structure containing one structure consisting of a simple int and a second structure consisting of a typedef'ed enum:

      This is produced by the following code: 

       

      #include <QCoreApplication>

typedef enum {
    SOME_ENUM_0 = 0,
    SOME_ENUM_1,
    SOME_ENUM_2,
    SOME_ENUM_3
} TypedefEnum;

struct StructWithTypdefEnum {
    TypedefEnum se = SOME_ENUM_0;
    std::string s = "This should also be accessible, but isn't!";
};

struct StructWithInt {
    int se = 0;
    std::string s = "This works!";
};

struct ShowBug {
    StructWithTypdefEnum inaccessible;
    StructWithInt accessible;
    std::string msg;
};

int main(void)
{
    ShowBug test;
    test.msg = "Bug in QtCreator 4.3.0";
    return 0; // breakpoint here
}

      Qt Creator up to 4.2.x treated this correctly and the bug was first introduced in 4.3.0. This is how Qt Creator 4.2.1 shows it (correctly) in Locals and Expressions:
