(Answer) (Category) FAQ-O-Matic : (Category) General : (Category) Debugger :
I installed JBuilder4 on Linux, and because the bundled IBM JVM debugger doesn't work well, I installed Sun's JVM and edited jdk.config to run JBuilder on Sun's JVM. However, when I look at the "Run" menu, NONE of my debugger menu items are enabled! What's wrong?
When you editted jdk.config, you neglected to update the "addpath" command for tools.jar as well as the "javapath" command for the java command itself. ALL paths within jdk.config must point to the same JVM, you can't mix them.

Here's the jdk.config file I'm using to run JBuilder on Sun's 1.3.1:

  javapath /usr/local/java/jdk1.3.1/bin/java
  addpath  /usr/local/java/jdk1.3.1/lib/tools.jar
  vmparam -Xverify:none

Previous: (Answer) I'm trying to use the remote debug feature. Every watch I set results in an "out of scope" error. What could be causing this? The debugger is pausing at the breakpoints I set within those methods so I'm certain the watches are in scope!
Next: (Answer) I need a better debugger than jdb. How can I use JBuilder's debugger to step through my application without having to rearrange my build process to make it all fit a JBuilder Project? (Most of us use javac/VAJ/whatever and can not or will not alter the structure.)
