Watchpoints

Just wondering - has anybody actually got watchpoints to work reliably in Xcode? I can set them ok, but I get a message "The program has left the block in which its _expression_ in valid" almost immediately. That is complete rubbish, incidentally! It seems to happen as soon as another function is called. For example, I can set the watchpoint on an instance variable in a class (when the PC is in one of that class's methods and the focus in the debugger is in that function at the top of the stack) and as soon as that function calls through to another method _of_the_same_class_ I get that error. This obviously makes watchpoints next to useless. This has been the case since at least Xcode 2.1, quite possibly earlier.

Do other people see this? Can anybody suggest any workaround? I'm fairly bored of coming up with repro scenarios for Radar at the moment, so has anybody already raised this issue?

Cheers
Jonny
