I use IntelliJ Idea for one of my projects too. The artifact generated is a JAR file, which is invoked from the command line in Windows. However, when debugging, I run the application from inside IJ-Idea. There may be a way to "attach to process" (similar to MS Visual Studio) in IJ-Idea, but I have no idea how. Also, be sure to set javac debug=true when compiling. ;-) > Code snippet: > > @Override > protected void doGet(HttpServletRequest request, HttpServletResponse response) > throws ServletException, IOException { > System.out.println("doGet hit"); > request.getRequestDispatcher("/index1.jsp").forward(request, response); } > > ie - Index1.jsp gets loaded but the println statement doesnt seem to appear > anywhere. > > Cheers > > Al -- Cris Berneburg CACI Lead Software Engineer --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: users-unsubscr...@tomcat.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: users-h...@tomcat.apache.org
