Hon,

Here's what I change on the run command in the shell script to start Merlin in debug mode:

RUN_CMD="$JAVA_HOME/bin/java -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8000,
server=y,suspend=n -Djava.security.policy=$MERLIN_HOME/bin/security.policy 
-Dmerlin.home=$MERLIN_HOME -Djava.ext.dirs=$MERLIN_HOME/ext -jar $MERLIN_HOME/bin/lib
/merlin-bootstrap-1.0.jar $*"
Check out the command parameters for the -Xdebug and set them as you need them.

I don't use jdb anymore.  I use eclipse and it works like a champ.  It's really easy to do remote debugging in eclipse.  Check out the help in eclipse to set u up.

 

Thanks, Eclipse was what I was intending to use, have been remote 
debugging tomcat servlets with it.

Perhaps I was solving the wrong problem, I haven't worked out how to get 
eclipse & merlin integrated smoothly yet, so I was going to start merlin 
from the command line and connect to it with eclipse.

I was sure I read somewhere what to do to enable JPDA remote debugging, 
however I can no longer find it.

Could someone please advise me what to do to get a Merlin jvm to start 
up with remote debugging?
     

Leo is the expert on this - but be warned - Merlin is somewhat recursive 
so don't send any messages complaining about headaches while looking at 
a debugger output.  Bottom line - you need to have an abstract mind to 
really appreciate the dark magic!

Cheers, Stephen.
