I use Emacs 20.7.1 and jde version 2.2.6 along with JDK1.2.2 and JPDA libs. Basic debugger for me as is expected for many moons and jde versions and now I want to try other features of the debugger. I could not locate any documentation for this. 1. Set Conditional break point - when does this menu item become active. I have always noticed this to be disabled 2. Evaluate expression - what kind of expression can be evaluated? 3. How to use watch for field. I tried using it and my java program that I am trying to debug simply hangs. Sometimes emacs jumps across various buffer before stopping in some buffer. I presume it's trying to show me something, but don't know what. 4. I notice that many of the entities under display menu expect to have object id. Is it possible to display object id in the local variables. 5. As I don't know much about multi threading, where can I find thread id. Is there any way for debugger to show all the active threads along with the ids. Show buffer/Threads option always results into a blank window. Thanks for any pointers. - Niranjan
