Sure, "JPDA support" would be nice. Do you have any plans to add
said support to Jikes? Open Source software is all about
self empowerment. If you need a feature bad enough, then
you can always do it yourself. I don't know if anyone else
is working on JPDA support, a couple of other people have
complained about it but I have not seen any patches yet.
The Jikes team has been trying to focus on getting the
really nasty bugs fixed, so new features have been
put on the back burner.
