debugging apps using jRockit
Hi folks,
have anyone been able to debug a webapp using jRockit R26 1.5.0?
It simply doesn't work for me. The JVM options looks fine.
thanks for any help,

nope, nothing. Everything seems normal, except that breakpoints are not taken into account.
It's exactly like if I had launched the webapp in Run mode.
And it actually starts a lot faster than with Sun JVM.

What version of Weblogic are you using and how do you attach with the debugger: as a remote connection or a local debug session?

My problem doesn't seem to apply to only JRockit so I will start my own thread.

Hi Eugene,
i'm actually not using Weblogic. I'm using Tomcat 5.5.16.
I debug using a local debug session. It works perfectly with Sun JVM, but behaves as if not being in debug mode with jRockit.
I didn't changed the JVM options as they seem in accordance with the jRockit documentation.

Hello Michael,
Are you sure that your source code corresponds the deployed application?

How do you set Tomcat to use JRockit?

Yeah the code was sync'd up, the problem was that I was being a dumb ass.
I didn't realize ANT's javac task, by default, doesn't generate code with symbolic debugging information. I added debug="true" to my javac ANT task and all was well.
The remote debugging is very cool! I didn't even know it was possible until I read chapter 6 of IntelliJ in Action.
Going to test out JSP debugging with the JSR45 plugin next. (have to read some BEA docs and see if weblogic 8.x is jsr45 compatiable first though...I would venture a guess and say it is, but I will check)
I simply change the configured target JDK in the Settings menu.
I'm not too clear about how IDEA use Tomcat, but according to the stacktrace it at least sets the JRE_HOME var to point to the selected JDK's home.
here's my IDEA debug console trace:
cmd /c D:\Java\apache-tomcat-5.5.16\bin\catalina.bat run

Looks like debugger successfully connects to the VM and it seems that the problem is in that breakpoints are ignored.
First, where do you set breakpoints - in java code or JSP?
Second, does breakpoint icon change somehow (the checkmark appears)? If not then it means that the class with this name was not even
loaded into VM => check that sources you see in the editor really correspond to the classes Tomcat runs at the moment.

well, after verifying the state of the breakpoints, I realized that some were actually working. And few minutes later that most of them were working....
In fact, there's only one breakpoint that doesn't work. The one I have chosen at first of course....
The faulty line is my SecurityFilter, in a method called for each and every action, very convenient place to test debugging.
Debugging with Sun's JVm works fine, as expected.
With jRockit, the debugger would stop on the first and the third line, but not on the middle one.
1. String pageReq = request.getServletPath();
2. Subject subject = ((Subject) (session.getAttribute(Auth.SUBJECT_SESSION_KEY)));
3. if (subject != null) {
I just can't figure out any reason for that not to being working.
I suppose I'll face some other identical inconsistencies in the future, but jRockit really rocks, it's some much faster, so I'll keep using it.
Sorry for that, next time I'll be more carreful. I really didn't expect the debugger to behave differently according tho the breakpoints.
cheers,
