Debugging Eclipse plug-ins

Question

This is my first attempt at creating an Eclipse plug-in. I\'ve created one, along with a feature and update site. I set the target platform as my local Eclipse installation.

Answer 1

See the Apache Wiki for Developing with Eclipse.

Under Windows 10 with Tomcat running as a windows service I started:

tomcat8.5\bin\Tomcat8w.exe

& added in the Java tab as the first entry in Java Options to enable remote debugging:

-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,address=8000,server=y,suspend=n
