Thank you both for your comments.
I'll give it a try.

Subject: RE: How To start Tomcat5x in jvm debug mode
Not in the configuration per se, but since, the cactus task extends the
junit task, is it possible to set the fork, and specify jvmargs to pass to
the new jvm? I haven't tried this with the cactus task, but have used
variations for starting our weblogic server in debug mode.
from the ant documentation:
<junit fork="yes">
<jvmarg value="-Djava.compiler=NONE"/>
...
</junit>
so for cactus it could be something like:
<cactus fork="yes" earfile="${basedir.ejb.build}/ejb.ear"
printsummary="yes" failureproperty="tests.failed">
<jvmarg value="-Xdebug" />
<jvmarg value="-
Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=12999,suspend=n" />
... other stuff here...
</cactus>
Very true! I forgot that. Thanks Mark :-)
the generic container is something you can use when the cactus defaults
don't satisfy your needs. maybe you need to start multiple servers (one
for web and one for beans), maybe you need to specify parameters to your
server that cactus has hard coded, etc.
now, since the cactus task generally starts, tests and then stops the
server, jvm debug mode maybe not be that helpful. if you're looking to
step through your code as the cactus tests are running. you've gotta be
quick to connect once it's started and have breakpoints, etc all setup.
this is where you might want to check out the generic container since it
lets you define an external task to start the container. thus you can
start the container in debug mode via one ant call, and then connect with
your ide of choice, and finally launch the cactus tests to be executed.

Thanks Mark for correcting my mistakes. Good to have someone watching your
back :-)

Hi Mark,
It's not supported in the default configuration used by the <tomcat5x>
element. The only solution for you right now is either to
provide a patch
for <tomcat5x> or to use the <generic> container element but
you'll need to
provide a way to start/stop Tomcat yourself.
FYI, this part of Cactus is currently being extracted in the
Cargo project
(http://cargo.codehaus.org). So you might want to add a
feature request in
the Cargo project if you're interested in using Cargo in the future.
Thanks

Subject: How To start Tomcat5x in jvm debug mode
Hi,
I tried to figure out, how I can configure Cactus to start my Tomcat
container in jvm debug mode.
I couldn't find any hints.
So does anybody know where the documentation might be
found, or how to
configure, please give me an answer.
Regards
Mark Doppelfeld
