JDev Debugging problem

Question

Dear sirs,
I would like to be able to debug my JDeveloper project and trace into the J2SE source files, but JDeveloper will not let me.
The project JVM is currently set to "Java 1.3.1"
with the path : "E:\java\jdk1.3.1\jre\bin\java.exe"
and with the classpath:
E:\java\jdk1.3.1\lib\dt.jar;E:\java\jdk1.3.1\jre\lib\rt.jar;E:\java\jdk1.3.1\jre\lib\i18n.jar
I have tried to set the path to
"E:\java\jdk1.3.1\bin\java.exe" instead, but JDeveloper switches the path back to "E:\java\jdk1.3.1\jre\bin\java.exe" for no apparent reason.
I have tried to uncompress the src.jar and set the
source path: E:\java\jdk1.3.1\src\ but to no avail.
I have tried to set the classpath to
E:\java\jdk1.3.1\lib\dt.jar;
E:\java\jdk1.3.1\src.jar;
E:\java\jdk1.3.1\jre\lib\i18n.jar;
E:\java\jdk1.3.1\jre\lib\rt.jar
to try and force it to use the source files instead of the runtime files, but then I get a System Error when trying to run my compiled project and execution is halted :
System Error:     java version "1.3.1"
System Error:     Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 1.3.1-b24)
System Error:     Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM (build 1.3.1-b24, interpreted mode)
System Error:     
Please help me, as I am running out of ideas on how to trace into the Java source code.
Best regards,
Christian Loft

Dear Christophe,
thank you for your reply. I have included the src.jar in the source path. But there is no "tracing classes and packages to Exclude" under the "Run/Debug" tab (I use JDeveloper 3.2.2 (Build 915)), but under the "Compiler" tab I have made sure that there is no files mentioned in the "Exlude class" and the "Exclude Sources".
The problem remains. I can run the application, but when I try to debug, the application window never appears.
Do you have any other things I can try?
Best regards,
Christian
You need to make sure sure of a couple of things:
- have src.jar added to your java source path (Project settings Input path)
- also you need to go into the debugger pane of project Settings and remove from "tracing classes and packages to Exclude" all the classes you want to trace into. For example if you want to trace into java.lang.String remove the java package.
Hope it helps, Christophe [JDeveloper team]
