unable to view debug window in intellij
Answered
|
I'm unable to view debug window in intellij (View > Tool Windows > Debug). I simply want to set a break point and step through the program - I've tried setting breakpoints and then running in debug (Run > Debug Main; Run > Debug). None of the tutorials on youtube, etc. have a simple answer. Any suggestions on how I can do this would be much appreciated. Using a mac, running intellij idea 2017 ultimate. Kind regards, Jon |

What Run/Debug configuration do you use? Please attach the screenshots.
Does the app start at all?
Any errors in idea.log (https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/articles/207241085)?
As far as I'm aware, I'm just using the default config. Yes, the app starts and runs.

Do you have the Main class in the specified package? See http://stackoverflow.com/a/42660624/104891.
Okay, I looked at the article you linked to. I do have the main class in the package.
Your file has errors, until fixed you can't compile and run it.
Okay. I understand that my file has. I'm trying to debug it (in Eclipse I could set breakpoints and step through to see where the errors were occurring). I can't seem to be able to get the debugger to work.
Until you fix the errors in the file, you can't debug it.
If you think that the file has no errors, please share the sample project: https://intellij-support.jetbrains.com/hc/articles/206869619.
Make sure project JDK is configured correctly.
Mr. Baranov,
I found the error. I had extra curly brace at the end of the program. :-/ (forehead slap)
After removing the error, debugger is working fine.
