breakpoints in xtend files [message #871502]

Hi

I'm using xtext 2.3.0M7 and I thought I could be able to set breakpoints
in xtend2 files (and also in my DSL files which rely on xbase and
generate java code with the inferrer), but I cannot set any breakpoint
(the context menu does not present that option); however, I seem to
remember that in the demos and presentations of the new xtext 2.3
feature it was possible to do that, wasn't it? Note that however I can
still debug xtend files, but I cannot set breakpoints...

thanks in advance
Lorenzo

xtend just generates java files on src-xtend, you can put breakpoints on them java files.

but it is supposed to be possible to set breakpoints also in xtend file
directly (http://www.eclipse.org/xtend/new_and_noteworthy/index.html):

"
Debugging since M6

Debugging through Xtend and Java is now fully supported. Setting
breakpoints in Xtend works just as in Java

Context menu entry is indeed missing but you can doubble-click the breakpoint ruler,
or use the ⇧⌘B short cut.

Hi,

for the old xpand/xtend there is the m2t newsgroup.
never the less i have xpand sdk installed an when i edit a file with xtend editor I can set breakpoints in .ext files.
call it through an mwe(1) workflow and you should be able to debug
