debugging java code - during EASE script execution [message #1751757]

Hello Experts,

I am using EASE script to create object of java classes dynamically and execute certain method. Below I have copied the content of EASE script (JS)

I am looking to find a way how to debug the java code (during execution of EASE script) as certain functionality is not working as expected

** I tried the default approach by selecting the action Debug As -> EASE Script but unfortunately it doesn't seem to debug the java code

loadModule('/System/Resources')
loadModule("/System/JVM");

//Importing needed packages
importPackage(com.test)

var reportGenObj = createInstance("workspace://DebuggingJavaClass/src/com/test/ReportGenerator.java")

print(reportGenObj)

/*- invoking method of a java object */

reportGenObj.run()

As a reference I have attached a zip file containing sample project

Please let me know if this is possible to debug the java code during the EASE script (JS) execution ?

Info: I am using EASE 0.3.0

You cannot debug java code with the EASE debugger. You would need the JDT debugger for that. To make it work start the Eclipse instance you want to debug with correct debug parameters, then launch an eclipse IDE and connect to that debugger. If you would try it with just 1 instance of eclipse running, you would kind of self-debug the running instance. This is also what we do in EASE, but we cannot step down the Java path there.

For me the simplest solution is to Have an Eclipse IDE, start a debug configuration for my target product, and run the script there. Then the first instance can du the Java debugging, while the 2nd does the script debugging
