[udig-devel] Setting up uDig 1.2 development in Eclipse

[David Adler <dadler@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Thank you for the help.  I was able to get uDig 1.2 running in Eclipse.  
It was possible to load a layer from DB2 LUW but this failed loading 
from DB2 for z/OS with the error:
java.lang.NullPointerException
   at 
net.refractions.udig.catalog.internal.db2.DB2GeoResource$DB2GeoResourceInfo.getTitle(Unknown 
Source)
   at net.refractions.udig.catalog.ui.CatalogUIPlugin.title(Unknown Source)
   at net.refractions.udig.catalog.ui.CatalogUIPlugin.title(Unknown Source)
   at 
net.refractions.udig.catalog.ui.ResolveTitlesDecorator$UpdateLabel.run(Unknown 
Source)
   at org.eclipse.core.internal.jobs.Worker.run(Worker.java:55)

I'm afraid I'm a newbie to debugging plug-ins in Eclipse.  How do I set 
a breakpoint?  Normally I work with regular Java projects in Eclipse and 
can easily select the file to set a breakpoint before starting debug mode.

In case I need to use Eclipse with the source tree, I've been following 
the instructions for this which are very good.  However after importing 
the uDig 1.2 code from the source tree, when I get to step 3 "Create 
Working sets", I'm not clear on how I select "Top Level Elements" from 
the package explorer.  I do see a huge number of net.refractions.udig 
packages.
