问题
I've started to implement a simple Java agent that does some instrumentation before a class is loaded by JVM. The thing is I need to do some debugging on this agent, but what I tried so far had failed( I tried to remote debug the agent but it's not working)
I use IntelliJ and Maven( to generate the .jar agent).
So my question:Is there any trick to remote debug a simple java agent?
回答1:
As it turns out I have a project that demos Java instrumentation, which I have tested out debugging in IntelliJ. Breakpoints work. You can use it as a reference.

Also, if you are debugging remotely, the premain might be executing before you can attach to the debugger. Try changing suspend=n to suspend=y in the debug command you are passing to the JVM running the agent code. That way, it will wait until you connect with IntelliJ before proceeding.
