What happens depends on whether a debuggee process is running when you set or clear the breakpoint and how you start the process. If you set a breakpoint before starting a process, the JDE stores the breakpoint in a list. If you use JDE->Debug App to launch the process, the saved breakpoint gets applied. If you use JDEbug->Processes->Launch Process to start the process, the saved breakpoint does not get applied. If you use the JDEbug->Set Breakpoint command to set a breakpoint while one or more processes is running, the command both saves the breakpoint and applies it to all running processes. Because of this situation, that you may set a breakpoint twice on the same location. When you clear it, the JDE clear breakpoint command clears the highlight and deletes the first instance from the breakpoint list but not the second. Hence, the breakpoint is set again when you restart the process in the same session. This is a bug which I will fix. >(This is the email address that came up with the jde->help->submit >problem report menu item.
