RE: [How to debug?]

[Stephen <st...@webreserve.com>]

I use JBuilder 3.5 Foundation (the free version) and it works great for
debugging. If you have more memory then you can try 4.0 but I like 3.5
better right now. The good thing about JBuilder is it is highly
configurable. For example, I am able to put everything in the "webapps"
folder and create the application in the same place it will be deployed. VA
3.02 works OK but there is a caching problem if you add a new class or
change some of its once it has already been run. There are some workarounds
to this but I haven't gotten it to work. With JBuilder you just load all the
tomcat classes into your project and when its time to debug you just run the
main class that starts up tomcat. Since everything is running inside the
same jvm it will let you debug your servlets as they are run.

Hello Edson,

  thanks very much for your answer. I just tried it with tomcat and it is
working alright for me.

  It seems quite powerful to me and I will go ahead and use it, still do
you know any *good* graphical frontend?
