A related question:

AFAIK there exists no classic VM 1.3 for Solaris so JDEbug is quite
unuseable onto this OS.
Does anybody know if there is any way/chance to get a classic VM 1.3 also
for Solaris?
Why there exists only for Solaris no classic 1.3 VM but for all other
OS that exists?

Betreff: RE: JDB + java 1.3

To summarize things I've read on the list recently... and
tried myself.

I believe the preferred method is to use JDebug instead of JDB whenever
you have a JVM that supports JPDA (Sun's j2sdk 1.3.0 for Linux
includes JPDA, so you already have it installed).  See the JDebug
user's guide on the JDE site regarding setting for JDebug
(as opposed to setting up for JDB).

http://sunsite.dk/jde/jdedoc/jdebug/ug/jdebug-ug.html

As has been noted several times on this list, there is a bug
that Sun is working on related to failure to set breakpoints
when using their HotSpot JVM in conjuction with JPDA and a debugger.
So be sure to pass "-classic" on your JVM startup command to ensure
that JDebug functions properly.

For example, see this message from the mailing list archive:

Subject: JDB + java 1.3


Using RedHat Linux 6.2 and Debian Woody, the JDB of the latest jdk release
of SUN (25672625 Sep 19 12:11 j2sdk-1_3_0-linux.rpm) doesn't seem to be
really functional. Consequently, I suppose, I cannot use JDE (I'm just
startingt to use Java). I know more people had similar problems
with jdb. How does one handle with this? Can one use JDE with 'oldjdb' which
at least on my debian machine (at home) seems to be better?


thanks,

 Michiel
