Please try the same with the console version, I suspect that it's the issue of Delve.

How can I do this?

[dlsniper]

To me this looks like an issue in Delve, see below:

[dlsniper]

@kolkov the debugger that the plugin is using is Delve. You can find it here: https://github.com/derekparker/delve and you can see everything you need in the readme/wiki :)

@dlsniper Where can I do this? In the IDEA Debugger console?

[dlsniper]

@kolkov you can do this in your normal console / command line of your operating system.

[dlsniper]

Or the builtin terminal of IDEA

@dlsniper Thanks! I thought it was like in LiteIDE:

[dlsniper]

Delve does not support this functionality yet, please see: https://github.com/derekparker/delve/issues/383 LiteIDE uses gdb as a debugging backend so a different story.

@ignatov I'd close this issue as we can't do too much for this for now (maybe just don't allow expanding of unsafe.Pointer type fields).

[kolkov]

@dlsniper Do I need to create issue in delve repo?

[dlsniper]

I've created the issue there. Thank you.
