Those interested in the Eclipse setup (no mvn dependency) should find this page [1] helpful.

I was able to get some online help from Greg and here are some takeaways for a using mvn/IntelliJ combination to debug compiler using an external test app: 1. Make sure you have the entire royale-compiler project imported as a mvn project 2. Build the whole thing from within IDE 3. Import test application into IDE as a mvn app (this was the part that I was wondering about) 4. Put a breakpoint in the compiler source code 5. Debug test app from within IDE Hope I got this list right, and hope it helps others interested in fixing the compiler.

But instead of selecting "Run" you select "Debug" ... that should be all that's needed.
