Description
**Description**
when using a expression as the address on the memory inspector, it will not work properly for previous stack frames.
**How to reproduce:**
- use the sample code bellow
``` C
#include
static void foo(size_t val)
{
printf("%ld\n", val*2); // <------------ break here
}
static void test(int n)
{
foo(80*n);
}
int main(void)
{
test(1);
test(2);
return 0;
}
```
- set break point at the comment
- run in debug
- select `test` on the call stack
- inspect the memory with expression `&(n)`
- Error message: `No symbol "n" in current context.`
**Expected behavior**
it should be able to get the adress of the local variable with no errors.
