Unable to debug in Java with eclipse

Question

I am trying to debug a simple Java application on my machine using Eclipse as an IDE. When I try to debug the application by entering the Debug Perspective, I set a breakpoi

Answer 1

Had same problem, but the solution was to run the application with -server=y option and not with -server=n.

Before:

java -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=n,suspend=y,address=localhost:5005 

After:

java -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=y,address=localhost:5005
