Hello,

I am trying to develop a Java application to debug VirtualBox, using the xpcom interface. I have read the SDK reference, and I found the specifications for the IMachineDebugger interface. This interface has methods for checking and modifying register values, memory space, and even for enabling or disabling single step execution, but I cannot find any method to execute instructions in a single-step way (equivalent to the 't' command in the debugger console).

I thought about opening the v.m. in debug mode and using the telnet debugger on port 5000 (to code a gateway class to manage it from Java), but I cannot connect to that port in any way.

The version I am using is VirtualBox 4.0.8 r71778.

My questions are:

Is debugging on port 5000 disabled?
Is there any way to execute instructions in single step mode from Java xpcom or any other programming interface?

Thank you in advance.
