IntelliJ Scala not recognizing Scala symbols ('foo)

Question

In IntelliJ Scala's debugger, you can open a window to evaluate expressions (alt + F8)

However, it always fails as long as I have Scala symbols in the expression (i.e., 'foobar), saying:

result = Literal has null value

Answer 1

It was a bug. It is fixed now, so all should work in the next version of the scala plugin.
