That brings about an interesting idea: Remote J Debugging. Useful for command-line and headless jconsole processes like CGI.
GUI Debugger is implemented in J. There is also J remoting interface via sockets. So it would be possible to debug a headless instance of J with a GUI instance of J communicating with this remoting. Would be also a good "real-world" example of remoting J programming. Implementation note: existing debugger is split into two parts: client and server. Client sets debugging mode and when debug condition occurs, attaches (starts or resumes) to the server, the server showing the GUI. They communicate with a protocol to update GUI and pass GUI events that control debugging settings and commands like "step" to the client. --- Alex Rufon <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Arrrgggghhh!

It makes debugging simpler. ____________________________________________________________________________________ Want to start your own business? Learn how on Yahoo!
