I would like to debug certain behavior, starting with completion.
I found conditional debugging statements in the DLTK source code referring
to these constants:

public static final boolean DEBUG = Boolean.valueOf(
Platform.getDebugOption("org.eclipse.dltk.core/debug")).booleanValue();
//$NON-NLS-1$

public static final boolean DEBUG_COMPLETION = Boolean.valueOf(
Platform.getDebugOption("org.eclipse.dltk.core/debugCompletion ")).booleanValue();
//$NON-NLS-1$

I googled Eclipse getDebugOption and found this page:

http://wiki.eclipse.org/FAQ_How_do_I_use_the_platform_debug_ tracing_facility%3F

I created a .options file, and put it into C:\java\eclipse, and it has this
contents:

org.eclipse.dltk.core/debug=true
org.eclipse.dltk.core/debugCompletion=true

I invoked Eclipse with the -debug flag and it said this:

Debug options:
file:/C:/Java/eclipse/.options loaded

When I attempt to debug the line which sets DEBUG_SELECTION, it didn't step
into getDebugOptions, it simply stepped into Boolean.valueOf() and said the
string value was null.

So, how do I set debug options?

Thanks,
Chuck

I'm not sure why it wasn't working before - but I believe it is working now.

Hi Chuck,

You also could specify this options from "Run Configurations" dialog -> Then select your launch shortcut -> Tracing tab
and set required options.

Best regards,
Andrei Sobolev.

That didn't work for me since none of the DLTK plugins were listed in the
tracing tab (and therefore couldn't be selected and enabled).
