Hi all...
I'm trying to debug through my app and be able to step into org.eclipse.gef source code. I've tried several different ways to get
the source into the run path, but none of them works. When I go to Properties for my plugin, I look under Java Build Path->Libraries and look at the gef.jar. I expand this to see Source Attachments:
I see the org.elcipse.gef jar as the source attachment, but this jar has no source in it. And the Source Attachment says it's non-modifiable so I don't get an edit button to add a different source jar.
Am I doing something wrong here?
I'm running Eclipse 3.4 and I'm using GEF 3.2.1.
Thanks in advance for the help.

Brady

Did you download the GEF SDK (this has source) or GEF runtime?

Yes, I have the GEF source. I just can't seem to get it in the right place for Eclipse to see it. I put it in the build path, in the dependencies, etc. Nothing seems to work. I was basically wondering where I need to put it for a plugin to be able to debug through it.
