On either of my macs (both intel macs), when I debug the itests the debugger hangs. I've been fighting with this problem over the past few months and now I'm at my wits end, so I'm hoping someone here can help.

First, I'd like to know if others are having this problem. To reproduce the problem, simply add org.apache.openejb.SomeoneBrokeSurefireAndThisIsADirtyHackForItTest to your debugger. You will need to add the following vm property:

  -javaagent:target/openejb-javaagent-3.0-incubating-SNAPSHOT.jar

And it should execute in the container/openejb-core directory. At this point, you should be able to "run" the test without debugging and everything should pass. Then simply drop a breakpoint in CmpContainer.findEJBObject(..) after the line "List<Object> results = cmpEngine.queryBeans(callContext, callMethod, args);" (line 638 in the current copy).

When you debug the process, OpenEJB will startup and the vm will "stall" at the breakpoint, but the vm will not "break". If you press the pause button, you will see that the vm is waiting at the break point, but since the vm didn't officially "break" it you can not inspect variables.

I have seen this in IntelliJ 5, 6 and Eclipse. Lately, I've started having the VM hang at without any breakpoints in the OpenJPA code that creates tables. Also, I have seen the VM hang after all tests pass and the VM is halting.

So can anyone else reproduce this, and does anyone know why this is happening. I didn't think it was possible to write java code that can hang a debugger.
