Description Will Smythe CLA 2011-11-18 14:47:34 EST 
There is a problem with the IDE Test Server where a developer is not prompted to switch to the Debug perspective (regardless of the preference set) when a breakpoint is encountered in a service executing in the IDE Test Server. This causes the app to look hung or the user is put into the source editor of the service, but has no way to step through/play the code (w/o manually switching to the debug perspective).

Justin is aware and knows the fix.

This is important because new developers (even experienced developers) will not understand what's happening and will wonder why their app is just sitting there.

This only occurs with the IDE Test Server. Running an EGL-generated Java program via Debug As > EGL Java Main App works fine (i.e. I am prompted to enter the debug perspective). The prompt correctly appears when debugging RUI handlers as well.
