We are actually quite close. Barring surprises, I should have the
remaining API implemented by this time next week.
The only jruby-debug related bug that I'm aware of that's still in
progress is JRUBY-1286.
Unless you're already working on it, I'll add tracing support to the
compiler after that (with a view to JRUBY-1268).
Keep me in the loop on that. The reason it's not there now was to avoid
adding the overhead of checking for trace hooks in compiled code; the
assumption was that interpreted-mode is "fast enough" to debug apps,
especially since in debug mode most methods wouldn't JIT anyway, and
that adding all those extra boolean checks into compiled code would
impact performance.
I'm open to discussing strategies for adding tracing without impacting
performance, but at the moment I'm not entirely convinced it's necessary.
