Android Studio Evaluate Expression issue

I am using Android Studio for Flutter development, and I can't debug code lately! I can set breakpoints but can't see what data is inside the object.

Ex: I have one object for (this happens for every objects) couponItem and whenever I try to debug that, I don't see anything at all in the evaluate expression dialog or debugger.

I am using following versions on MacBook pro.

Solution

  • There is a bug in Flutter plugin for a long time with no doubt.
    A workaround is using older version Flutter and Dart plugins that will help. However, you also have to downgrade your Android Studio. Download urls are as follows.

    After downgrading, you can install downloaded plugins from your disk on Android Studio, please follow the steps:

    1. Setting
    2. Plugins
    3. GEAR button (on the top-right)
    4. Install Plugin from Disk...
    5. Restart Android Studio

    Done!
