Bug 527956

Description Arne De Herdt 2017-11-30 08:56:30 EST

Okay,

This is honestly for me a last attempt at getting this working in Eclipse...
I've my workspace with several Java projects inside, all getting compiled into a single archive using maven, and launched using our internal tool for resembling our PaaS platform.

In most cases, the debugger works and stops at breakpoints placed in code files when firing up the debugger, but there's cases where this simply stops working. I don't even have to have made code-changes, it can simply stop working from one day to the other.

I'm having the following views open:

* debug
* outline
* Breakpoints
* Expressions
* Package Explorer

I can see the services/threads running, as well as the breakpoints with a blue circle. However they do not get the checkmark and the debugger just falls through them. Sometimes it works when I put a breakpoint in a calling function, and step down manually from there, but even that is not guaranteed.

I'm not sure what more details I can give you.
Our projects basically get compiled to JARs and are all packaged together into a .gar file which we run on our PaaS.
No clue why it sometimes works, sometimes doesn't.
