Debugging issues in 8.1.x EAPs

Hello Nathan,

Are you by any chance using JDK 1.6.0_14 as the target JDK?

Anyone noticed any debugging problems in the recent 8.1 EAPs? A
number
of times now, stepping has been problematic - sometimes IDEA just sits
there after I press F8 and the only way to jolt it into action seems
to
be to go into the breakpoints dialog and change something e.g. delete
a
breakpoint.
I've also noticed that it takes a long time for the execution point to
show in IDEA when a breakpoint is hit. The debugged app will freeze
and
then some seconds later the execution point shows up.
I have no field/method breakpoints defined, and no special config on
breakpoints - they're just vanilla.

Hi Dmitry,

No I'm actually using 1.6.0_13 - should I be using _14 then? Is it a JDK
issue?

Thanks,
Nathan.

Thanks,

I've moved to _14 and it still feels sluggish, but I haven't had any
'hangs' yet... should I be using _14?

I'm experiencing the very sample problem. Stepping through code using F8 after a breakpoint is hit is painfully slow in the 8.1.x EAP's. The message that states evaluaing value of variables in the debug window takes forever. I'm on OSX.

FYI, I'm running Mac OS X 10.6 (snow leopard), which has Java 1.6.0_13 installed.  I can't even get the debugger to start up my server program; it launches but it is very, very slow.  I end up having to run the executable outside of the debugger for it to work.

I've tried this on latest Diana and Maia builds, and both are the same result.

Sounds like it's possibly an issue with the later 1.6 JDK's then... no
word back from Dmitry yet though.

Hello Nathan,

I don't have much to say unfortunately except for the fact that one of my
colleagues reported problems with debugging on 1.6.0_14.
