    Description

      Hi,

      It seems that lamba definition is causing tooltips with variable values to not be displayed correctly. Instead tooltip has only a caption which says "<value> (Previous)".

       

      Take a look at the below image:

       

       

      Now, I will rebuild the project with commented lambda definition:

       

       

      As you can see, value appears in the tooltip.

       

      Steps to reproduce:

       

      1. Create a new project "Plain C++ application".
      2. Copy and paste below code to main.cpp
      #include <iostream>
      #include <string>
      using namespace std;int main(int argc, char* argv[])
      {
        string my_string {"Hi I am string, sup?"};	// Comment below block of code and you will be able to see my_string value at line 16.
        auto callback = [](bool success)
        {	};	
        return 0; //Put a breakpoint here and check value of my_string.
      		//It does not show in tool tip if "auto callback" is compiled.
      }
      
      

      3. Put breakpoint on where "return 0" is then build&run project in debug mode.
      4. Check value of my_string by hovering mouse over it when program stops at the line.
