Remote (java) debugging w JCC?

[Petrus Hyvönen]

Hi,

I'm trying to find some potential bugs in the java code I've wrapped and
thought about the possibilities to connect a remote debugger to the JVM.

I am no java expert but found that JVM's can be debugged when started with
some jvm arguments. Such as string is for example
"-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=4242". I have
tried to feed this to the vmargs, but I get an error and think it's because
the initVM splits the input string on commas to separate arguments.

Do you know if there is a way to trick around this "split"?

Does anyone on the list have experience on remote debugging of JCC wrapped
java, if it can work at all?

Many thanks for feedback

Hi,

Sometimes writing an email helps you to seek the source..

Yes, it works,

The vmargs parameter takes also a sequence of things, so:

.initVM(vmargs=['-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=8000','-Xdebug'])

remote debugging from eclipse to JVM seems to work fine with breakpoints
etc.

Sorry for the noise.. :)
