I've been in the same boat. The deployment.cache file is not particularly
interesting, since it doesn't contain the source. When creating the
wrappers, Orion generates the source and compiles it in the root of the
Orion installation. When done compiling, it places the class files in the
"zip-file-ish" deployment.cache, and deletes everything it generated from
the root of the Orion installation. Removing the filesystem delete
permission from the root of the Orion installation means the source files
stick around, so adding them to the path of your debugger is then a
possibility. Of, course, they're not compiled with debugging info, so you
can't get fancy with watches and the like, but you _can_ step through the
code, actually seeing what's going on - and spot any bugs in Orion's code
generation. ;)
