Bug in catalina.sh? Problem using jpda

[William Lee <wl...@sendmail.com>]

I have been using jswat for debugging Tomcat for a while.  However, 
since I use the catalina's jpda start it doesn't work anymore.  It seems 
like in the java command arguments that catalina.sh script constructed 
are missing a -Xnoagent flag.  It's causing the jswat to skip all the 
breakpoint that I've set I think.

Also, it seems like the setclasspath.sh script is explicitly checking 
jdb and javac in your JAVA_HOME/bin directory before allowing you to 
pass.  That means you can't really use that script with any JRE for the 
binaries are not included...  I know jsp would not work with the JRE but 
I can use the JRE with just plan servlet with no problem and having that 
check there is somewhat redundent.

BTW, I'm currently using IBM JDK 1.3 and Tomcat 4.1.12 on Linux.

I'm using Netbean 3.4 on Linux and I don' have any problems. On thing 
I'm doing in order debug from the Boostrap class is by adding the 
following code:

        try{
            Thread.sleep(10000);
        }catch(java.lang.Exception ex){
            ex.printStackTrace();
        }

This give the time to (in my case Netbean) to properly connect to the jpda.
