I'm porting an app from tomcat to virgo. It was based on maven, and in my maven repository I found the source files for the individual spring jar classes. Now, in Virgo, when I would like to see what's going on in spring it's unclear how to attach the source code (for example the one from my local maven repo) to the virgo spring classes. What's the best solution for this?

I can offer you my solution for debugging almost anything in Java - I use JSwat.
I think you'll need to unpack the sources, then right-click in JSwat's sources panel and add each of the unpacked source directories. After that, open the file where you want to start debugging, make a breakpoint and use Session -> Attach to attach to remote Virgo instance. And don't forget to run Virgo with remote debugging enabled.

Or it can be done in Eclipse. When you go into a stack frame in the debugger and are prompted for source, you simply define an external JAR and navigate to the source JAR. Have you tried that?

Maybe it would be a good idea to include the spring source files in the virgo install (maybe also in the repository/ext directory?). Otherwise we will always have to download the individual bundle source code jars for all bundles of the spring library.

We wouldn't be able to get away with doing this just for Spring - essentially I think we'd have to provide a source download for each Virgo deliverable. But thanks for the feedback - it's certainly something for us to chew on.

I raised an enhancement bugzilla. I'm afraid I can't commit to when we will implement it though...
