The only option I can think of would be to run Geronimo with JPDA
enabled (-agentlib:jdwp) and use Netbeans's debugger. It should work
fine.
Can you give pls some Keywords about this Topic? Does it means the
Remote Debuggerof the JDK
can establish a Debugg "Remote" Pipeline to Geronimo (iam guessing there
is a Remote Debugger, but iam not sure :-) )
How can i do faster Roundtrip (Distribute&Run) Cycles with Netbeans 6.x?
You mean while developing enterprise apps? If so, you may want to use
maven plugin for Geronimo and Netbeans together and deploy/undeploy
from within Netbeans. It should work too (would be a good addition to
Geronimo's doc set).
Is the Maven PlugIn Productionready?
The Other Thing: Speed up on Deployment:
It allways takes some Time for Packaging and deploying against Geronimo.
I started thinking about creating a Ramdisk where Geronimo runs and the
Packaging Tasks will
be performed (ANT-Build Output) for faster Roundtrip Development (for
testing only)!
Maybe the Netbeans Plugin can use in Future Shared Memory Access for
making things
faster. I have noticed thadts IntelliJ IDEA's Workbench and the
Debugger can communicate with
Shared Memory anstead of TCP Sockets and this definately makes
Debuggingstuff faster!
Is the Netbeans PlugIn right now production Ready?
Unfortunatelly not. Noone's working on it as much as it deserves (I'm
the only one who worked on it and am trying to get to it again, but
don't know how it will eventially work out). Wanna help?

I really dont know, iam not familar with programming Netbeans PlugIns as
