Debugging Xtext [message #904337] Tue, 28 August 2012 05:11 Go to next message

Hi,

as I'm starting to move from Xtext 2.2 to 2.3.1, I need to dive deep into some code.
This is something I want to do with debugging, so I need to set a breakpoint in the generated java class as normal. This was working with the previous versions.
Now he just stops in the Xtend files, but I must debug the java ones!
I could not find an option to change that. is there any possibility?

(and please don't start to discuss what is better, I need the java class debugging! For me it is a dangerous blocker for my project and brings me in huge trouble!)

thanks a lot,
~ingo

Hi,

you can choose whether the xtend or the java code is shown. There is an enty in the stack trace element context menu. Have a close look at

Ok, I found another problem related to debugging: Conditional Breakpoints

I understand that this is not possible/difficult in Xtend. But in the generated Java code I must be able to use them (I dunno how one can survive without them Wink)
But when debugging the debugger is not stopping on them. Sometimes the debugger is stopping on normal java brekapoints, but not always.
I don't know if this is a bug or if it should work or not???
Also after each regenration all Java breakpoints are lost. This is different to the 2.2-and-earlier world where all those things worked perfekt.

Thanks for your help,
~Ingo
