The Java debug pane is not expanding the keys in a HashMap

Problem: HashMap nodes are unexpandable when a Map.Entry local variable exists (screenshot attached)

Sample code

package com.tech.maven;

import java.util.HashMap;
import java.util.Map;

public class Bug {
    public static void main(String[] args) {
        Map<String, String> m = new HashMap<>();
        m.put("employees", "500");
        m.put("department", "IT");

        // Put your breakpoint on the line below  ←←←←←
        System.out.println("breakpoint here");

        // After you stop here, look at "m" in VARIABLES or WATCH → m.entrySet()
        // You will see only one entry (or unexpandable nodes) if the bug is still present
    }
    
}

Inizia con il punto di ingresso di esempio Bug.main, fermati al breakpoint indicato e ispeziona m in VARIABLES oppure m.entrySet() in WATCH usando la configurazione Java e VS Code segnalata. L'issue è completata quando i nodi HashMap si espandono e tutte le entry sono visibili anche quando esiste una variabile locale di tipo Map.Entry.
