Hi all, My question is related to the JVM, but today to the debugging interface actually. Or o be more exact in what exact cases the JVM gives out the events when using step filtering.
The background is that I try to fix https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GROOVY-4063 and I am totally lost. Is there any kind of specification for the debugger and the stepping? Obviously something like http://docs.oracle.com/javase/7/docs/technotes/tools/windows/jdb.html """ Stepping The step commands advances execution to the next line whether it is in the current stack frame or a called method. The next command advances execution to the next line in the current stack frame. """ is not the entire truth or applies only to Java compiled code somehow. The JVM is responsible for reporting the events and according to Peter Gromov it does not report an event in case of stepping for subfunction at all (https://jira.codehaus.org/browse/GROOVY-4063?focusedCommentId=339971&page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel#comment-339971). Since I am at a total loss it would be nice if someone here has at least some ideas... I kind of doubt there is a document available describing exactly how stepping in debug mode is done. bye Jochen -- Jochen "blackdrag" Theodorou - Groovy Project Tech Lead blog: http://blackdragsview.blogspot.com/ german groovy discussion newsgroup: de.comp.lang.misc For Groovy programming sources visit http://groovy-lang.org _______________________________________________ mlvm-dev mailing list mlvm-dev@openjdk.java.net http://mail.openjdk.java.net/mailman/listinfo/mlvm-dev
