I can't get Hot Swap features of a Java 1.4.1_02 compiler working inside
the latest Eclipse debugger. I set the debugger JRE to use the 1.4.1_02
as well, debug to a breakpoint, make a change, save, and I always get a
obsolete method warning without a Hot Swap.

Any ideas? Or can you point me in the right direction?

Thanks,

Shane

What type of code change are you attempting?
Are you changing the "shape" of the class...adding or removing a method or
field?
Are you changing code within an inner class?

None of the code changes I've tried have been that sophisticated. Just
something simple to test that the Hot Swap is working while debugging. For
example, changing a String printing to the console within a method, i.e.
System.out.println("change me"). I am using JUnit.

Thanks,

One way or another, you're getting burned by your test case. The next time
you're doing real debugging and you want to make a change, let your program
running and see how it goes.

Of course JUnit is a rather complicated starting point...a bit of reflection
with native methods on the stack :-)

After a little more testing, Hot Swap works in Eclipse and even while using
JUnit. However, it doesn't appear to work while inside an object
constructor or a main method. These limitations are probably documented
somewhere. I was expecting functionality similar to the Smalltalk language
or IBM Visual Age for Java which have finely tuned Hot Swap capabilities.

Thanks,

Shane
