[Bluej-discuss] Inspector not updating?

[Davin McCall]

It would be a bug. However it works for me.

Just to clarify, an inspector observes an object, not the value of any 
particular expression. Perhaps in your case adding an object to the 
array involves creating a new (larger) array, and copying the contents 
of the original array into it along with the new value? In that case the 
original array is not modified.

Otherwise, file a bug report, and please include the code you use to add 
objects into the array.

Thanks,

Davin
