I'm willing to help you figure that out... I just tried JDEBug, and that also doesn't work. The JDEBug process dies mysteriously shortly after I try to attach to a local process, with no error message on the Emacs side. However the stdout for the Java process I'm connecting to says "Transport error, error code = -1". I'm using JDK 1.4.2_05 on Linux. Do you know anything about that? Raul
