public abstract class Debugger
extends javax.ide.Service

The Debugger can be used to start the debuggee or to retrieve command line options so the extension can start the debuggee itself.

IDE providers must provide an implementation of getClientConnector( Context ) 55 and getServerConnector(Context) 55 .

getServerConnector

public abstract ServerConnector getServerConnector(javax.ide.command.Context context)
                                            throws java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
Creates a server connector for a debugging session. The ServerConnector object returned can be used to start the debuggee or to retrieve command line options so the extension can start the debuggee itself. If the extension wants to start the the debuggee itself, it should call Connector.getOptions() 55 to retrieve the command line options that it should use to start the debuggee. If the extension wants to start a third party container (such as Tomcat, WebLogic, Avalon based systems, properietary based systems, etc.), it can ignore options that are specific to the IDE's preferred container (for example, the extension may ignore the values corresponding to the Connector.OPTION_MAIN_CLASS 55 key). The extension should not ignore the values corresponding to the Connector.OPTION_DEBUG_FIRST 55 and Connector.OPTION_DEBUG_LAST 55 keys, as these are dictated by the IDE so that the debugger will be able connect with the debuggee. If the extension wants the IDE to start the debuggee, it should call Connector.startDebuggee(java.util.Map) 55 . The returned Connector will implement ServerConnector. The extension writer should call ServerConnector.startListening() 55 to start the debugger listening, and then the extension should either start the debuggee process or tell the IDE to do so by calling Connector.startDebuggee(java.util.Map) 55 . When the debuggee process is launched, the listening debugger will automatically accept the connection.


getClientConnector

public abstract ClientConnector getClientConnector(javax.ide.command.Context context)
                                            throws java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException
Creates a client connector for a debugging session. The ClientConnector object returned can be used to start the debuggee or to retrieve command line options so the extension can start the debuggee itself. If the extension wants to start the the debuggee itself, it should call Connector.getOptions() 55 to retrieve the command line options that it should use to start the debuggee. If the extension wants to start a third party container (such as Tomcat, WebLogic, Avalon based systems, properietary based systems, etc.), it can ignore options that are specific to the IDE's preferred container (for example, the extension may ignore the values corresponding to the Connector.OPTION_MAIN_CLASS 55 key).

If the extension wants the IDE to start the debuggee, it should call Connector.startDebuggee(java.util.Map) 55 . The returned Connector will implement ClientConnector. The extension writer should either start the debuggee process or tell the IDE to do so by calling Connector.startDebuggee(java.util.Map) 55 , and then the extension writer should call ClientConnector.attachDebugger() 55 to tell the debugger to attach to the debuggee.
