Description Gary Ng CLA 2011-01-19 10:46:54 EST
Build Identifier: 20100617-1415

When in Java perspective, Ctrl-Shift-B on an editor adds a breakpoint.  This is good. 
When in J2EE perspective, Ctrl-Shift-B does nothing.  Nossing!  Very difficult for visually impaired developers who rely on hotkey support.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.  Open any java source code in an editor
2.  Switch to J2EE perspective
3.  Hit ctrl-shift-B.  No breakpoint is added!

Gary,

Judging by your Build Identifier, you are using Eclipse 3.6, which corresponds to WTP 3.2.  Is that correct?  And if so, can you please try Helios SR1/Eclipse 3.6.1/WTP 3.2.2?  I just tried this in WTP 3.2.2, and Ctrl+Shift+B set a breakpoint in the Java EE perspective.

Hello Carl,

I am actually using Helios.  According to the "About Eclipse Features", the "Eclipse Web Developer Tool" feature is 3.2.0.v201005241510.

I'll download 3.2.2 and give it a shot.

Gary, we really need feedback on this issue.  As I said, it WORKSFORME.  If you can give us a reproducible scenario, please reopen this bug.
