Yes, it's just not supported. Xcode's support for full native Java development is lagging as we focus on Objective-C for the iPhone and Mac, and support C++ and C for open source projects. There is a lot of information about using Eclipse for native Java development on the Apple Developer Connection at Developing Java Applications on Mac OS X with Eclipse2. I see this from the Xcode 3.1 release notes, "The debugger no longer shows variables 'out of scope' when they are not. 4883236." I'm wondering if there's a way to completely disable showing out of scope variables until they come into scope? Barring that, can I make it so the variable window saves its position so it doesn't keep jumping up to the top, causing me to have to scroll down through a bunch of out-of-scope variables until I get to the one(s) I'm actually interested in seeing?
Are you still talking about Java or about C/C++/Objective-C? The bug in question is irrelevant to the Java debugger, but if the question is about gdb debugging, no, there isn't currently a way to hide out-of-scope variables.
A workaround is to open the variables you're actually interested in seeing in a separate window by control-clicking on the variable and choosing View Variable in Window.
