I set up Geany on Ubuntu - nice! It uses javac to compile java programs
(not ghcc) and works very well. I have the debugger installed and the
debug window works. However, I need some help in actually being able to
debug a java program. So some questions:
1. Do I need to define any changes to the compile menu? If so, what?
2. I have used debuggers in other languages, but they all have debug
menus in the ide (Watch, Step, Step-Over, etc). Any instructions on
using the debugger?
The "Scope" plugin has a toolbar and probably menu items with such actions.
It occurs to me that this question has been asked before, so someone may
have written something that would be helpful. If so, feel free to send
me a link.
Assuming you're referring to any of the (3) debugger plugins in
Geany-Plugins, they're all front-ends for the GNU Debugger (gdb) and so
you would require to compile the code with GCJ[0]. That said, I'm not
sure any of the debugger plugins have been tested to debug Java. If you
get it working, it would be useful for others if you posted instructions
on the wiki[1].
