since either one of the latest kotlin, or one of the latest intellij updates very often intellij converts normal brakpoints into a "forbidden" icon (attached) as soon as the debugging session starts and just jumps over the breakpoint.
How to resolve the situation? (btw stepping through that very code is still possible, if dthe debugger hold and i step into this code)

Used to happen to me pretty often too, less so recently I feel. It doesn’t happen for all breakpoints usually, so sometimes I’d set a breakpoint at the beginning of a test for example, and re-set the disappearing one after the debugger has been attached.

I never figured out how to reproduce this though

Here’s an unrelated issue, but they’ve written that they’re working on debugger quality :)

Do you have any related exceptions in IDEA log? If possible, please file a bug report at http://kotl.in/issue with attached log, steps to reproduce, sample project.

[thana]

unfortunately not - at least intellij didn't notify me about any exception during execution.
Also i don;t have any steps to reproduce as it sometimes works and sometimes doesn't ;-/

[wasyl]

I think I recall having empty logs when I tried to reproduce this

[thana]

@Alexey Belkov [JB] at least right now a breakpoint again gets unusable and the event log is empty

[Alexey Belkov [JB]]

To clarify, I'm talking about IDEA logs: https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/en-us/articles/207241085-Locating-IDE-log-files

[thana]

ahh in that case: yes there seems to be an exception. yet i can't provide a running example. should is still file a bug?

[Alexey Belkov [JB]]

Can you please share the full exception text?

This is MPP project with breakpoint in Common, right? See https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/KT-41471#focus=Comments-27-4433190.0-0 for a possible workaround.

[thana]

Thank you, i will try it!

[thana]

FWIW: The workaround worked for me, too
