FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
java version "1.8.0_05"
Java(TM) SE Runtime Environment (build 1.8.0_05-b13)
Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 25.5-b02, mixed mode)

ADDITIONAL OS VERSION INFORMATION :
Windows 8

A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
JDK 8 started to generate incorrect LOCALVARIABLE info, because of that debugger does not show local variables in some cases, see http://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issue/IDEA-126287


REGRESSION. Last worked in version 7u51

STEPS TO FOLLOW TO REPRODUCE THE PROBLEM :
compile and stop on a breakpoint in the provided source code


EXPECTED VERSUS ACTUAL BEHAVIOR :
EXPECTED -
j is available as a local variable
ACTUAL -
not available

REPRODUCIBILITY :
This bug can be reproduced always.

---------- BEGIN SOURCE ----------
public class LocalVar {
    int workingColumn = 0;
    Matrix matrix = new Matrix();

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        LocalVar lv = new LocalVar();
        lv.foo();
    }

    private void foo() {

        Rational factor = null;

        int i,j,k;
        workingColumn = 0;
        for (i = 0; i < matrix.getHeight(); i++) {

            int nnli = getXXX(i);
            if (nnli != -1) {
                matrix.swapLines(i, nnli);
                divideXXX(workingColumn, i);

                for (j = i+1; j < matrix.getHeight(); j++) {
                    System.out.println(j); // breakpoint here, j is not visible
                    factor = new Rational(matrix.getElementAtCoordinates
                            (workingColumn, j));
                }
            }
        }
    }

    private void divideXXX(int workingColumn, int i) {

    }

    private int getXXX(int line) {
        return 5;
    }

    class Matrix {
        int getWidth() {
            return 10;
        }

        int getHeight() {
            return 10;
        }

        void swapLines(int a, int b) {

        }

        public int getElementAtCoordinates(int workingColumn, int j) {
            return 2;
        }
    }

    class Rational {
        public Rational(int a) {
        }
    }
}

CUSTOMER SUBMITTED WORKAROUND :
Use jdk 7, it generates correct LOCALVARIABLE info
