Unable to step through debugger

All,
This is my first experience with NWDS so please excuse if it's an easy solution.
Debugging has been setup and looks to be working to a point. When I put a break point in and run, the application pauses as if it went to the break point. In fact I can hover my cursor over a variable and see the value.
Here's the part that doesn't work, from what I can see the Run menu has options to "Step Into", "Step Over" and other options, however are all disabled. If I try the function key equivalent, they do not respond.
There we go, please let me know if you have any questions.
NWDS 7.0.10
J2EE on remote host with debugging ON.
Thanks!

Can I instruct the debugger to step through triggered events as well?

I have the following statements in my code:
Public Class Class1
Public Shared Sub TestClass()
Dim ExlApp As Excel.Application = CType(AddinModule.CurrentInstance, TimeTracker.AddinModule).ExcelApp
ExlApp.Range("A1").Value = "Test"
ExlApp.Range("A2").Value = "When I press F11 the debugger jumps to this row from test"
End Sub
End Class
When I step through the debugger, it jumps directly from the first statement above to the second. But inbetween those rows some events are triggered. Is there any way to tell the debugger to not jump over these events but instead step into these events?

Hi JP3O,
Since it is related to the specific VB app, to really repro this issue, could you share me the sample?
>>But inbetween those rows some events are triggered.
Maybe you could add breakpoints in your events, and then debug your whole app with "Start debugging (F5)", and make sure that the code is really called (the breakpoints were hit)or it has been called before the code shared in your thread.
Or it is related to the JIT:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-US/library/7ad07721(v=vs.100).aspx
If the breakpoints in evens are not hit, please check whether you could get any message if you put the mouse on the breakpoints. Maybe it is related to the symbols loaded or others.
If you get any latest information, please feel free to let me know.

Jack

         userSet.add(new Integer(id));
     return destinationPlugin;

I'm assuming SI_ID=716 is the Inbox where you're sending the objects.
The issue is that you're not clicking the "Step Over" button fast enough when debugging. If you click really fast, then you'll get the same issue.
Workaround for the non-debug case is to count the number of objects you're sending, then when moving, loop till the InfoStore query retrieves the correct number of objects.
You're not giving enough time for the Destination Job Server to send the objects to the Inbox - they're not there yet.
Sincerely,
Ted Ueda
Edit: I see you've identified the issue as well - note that the CMS job scheduling thread triggering interval isn't under programmatic control, so I'd still recommend loop-count-wait workflow.

Check condition through debugger

Dear All,
I have a problem with a condition how can I check this condition within sapscript through debugger.
Can I step in into this statemanet ?
Regards
M.M

I hear your frustration. Sapscript is not always a friendly tool.
Did you go into the sapscript debugger. Can you confirm that it is evaluating your condition as false and not that it is an issue with the text element itself?
If you still have the constant in your program, can you check the value of it within your sapscript to see that it came over ok?
One more suggestion, within sapscript, did you run form->check->texts to see if you can find any problems with your form. You may get some false hits, but sometimes you locate problems you didn't realize you had. I've seen more than a few developers spell endif wrong and they never are out of a prior if condition. (probably not the issue, but want to try to be thorough).

Since the most recent Firefox update I have been unable to click through links from Windows Live to Firefox, but it works for Internet explorer?? Any explanations?

Firefox is my default browser and since the most recent Firefox update I have been unable to click through links I receive from Windows Live Email to the Firefox browser, but it works if my browser is set to IE9?? I have checked the defaults settings and both are fine, so Any explanations or ideas on how to solve this?

Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried, until the problem is resolved.
Step 1
Restart the router. Many problems are solved that way.
Step 2
Change the name of the wireless network, if applicable, to eliminate any characters other than letters and digits. You do that on your router via its web page, if it's not an Apple device, or via AirPort Utility, if it is an Apple device.
Step 3
Run the Network Diagnostics assistant.
Step 4
Back up all data.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
Enter the name of your wireless network in the search box. You should have one or more "AirPort network password" items with that name. Make a note of the name and password, then delete all the items. Quit Keychain Access. Turn Wi-Fi off and then back on. Reconnect to the network.
Step 5
You may need to change other settings on the router. See the guidelines linked below:
Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
Potential sources of interference
Step 6
Make a note of all your settings for Wi-Fi in the Network preference pane, then delete the connection from the connection list and recreate it with the same settings. You do this by clicking the plus-sign icon below the connection list, and selecting Wi-Fi as the interface in the sheet that opens. Select Join other network from the Network Name menu, then select your network. Enter the password when prompted and save it in the keychain.
Step 7
Reset the System Management Controller (SMC).

Step Through java.* Classes With JDB

Here is a simple program:
public final class HelloWorld {
private HelloWorld() {
public static void main(String[] args) {
System.out.println("Hello, World!");
}I compile it with the -g option, and run it in jdb:
javac -g HelloWorld.java
jdb HelloWorld
I set a breakpoint in the main function...now I'm wondering why I can't step through the String constructor (or whatever magic happens behind the String literal syntax) and the println method calls. When I use step, it just skips over them! I find that I can set breakpoints in library methods, and use list to see the source, but as soon as I step it flies out of the library method and back to mine. Does anybody know what gives? Is it because the libraries aren't compiled with the -g option???

Thanks for your quick input. It seems you're right about the libraries. I made a dummy class compiled with the -g:none option, added some more lines in the first class (compiled with -g), and ran it through jdb. It stepped over the methods from the class with no debug info...same way as before.
This is annoying. Sun should really provide debug versions of their libraries.
So how does JBuilder let you step through library methods? Did they take the Sun source and recompile it? Do they have a magic debugger?

Applescript no longer steps through iCal events in sequence

Hi all,
I have been using an Applescript that someone on this forum helped me write a few years ago to put unique combos of events into iCal and it has worked perfectly for me, although this year it has begun to jump around within iCal when it is adding events. In other words it used to step through the calendar and add events day by day, progressing chronologically. Now it still accomplishes the task but starts (currently) with May 1 of 2011 and moves to May 16th ... The fact that it still works is cool, but it has slowed the applescript down quite a lot.
Here is a section of the script...thanks, dan

end if
end repeat
end if
end repeat </pre>

Hi Bernard,
right, I believe you were the one that came up with this script! It still does the trick, although it does begin adding new events at different times depending on when the cache was last deleted (i think). I've used the Onyx program to do this and indeed it influences the start date for the creation of new events via your script, so I don't think it has anything to do with the master calendar. Since I repeatedly run this script to make new events and then export the calendar, delete it, make a new untitled calendar and then run the script again... I've found that iCal and the applescript sloooow down over time and it is best to quit both, maybe even restart and then start the process again. Guess I might never figure this one out.
Thanks for the help,
dan

Step Through a List of .p12 Certificates and Their Passwords to Extract Property Data

Stepping through a poorly formatted xml file

Hi, this forum worked a charm earlier so I'm hoping it will go 2 for 2.
Through a httpservice I'm reading an XML file into a ArrayCollection. Because the XML is so poorly formatted I'm having to write some very sloppy code just to step through 20 results. I have no control over the XML.
XML Example (can be anywhere from 0 to 20 results):
<results>
    <game>
        <type>game</type>
        <id>321</id>
        <name>gamename</name>
        <image>i34d.png</image>
    </game>
    <character>
        <type>character</type>
        <id>1123</id>
        <name>john</name>
        <image>sds.png/image>
    </character>
    <game>
        <type>game</type>
        <id>432</id>
        <name>examplename</name>
        <image>g2dss.png</image>
    </game>
</results>
Each result can be one of 7 types (I've done only 2, game and character, in my example). The order of them I really want to preserve in my ArrayCollection as it's very relevant.
Here is the (very) sloppy way I'm currently loading each result into my AC:
//container array
var ac2:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection;
//I do a block like this for EVERY results type. Meaning 7 in total...
if (service2.lastResult.response.results.character) {
     var characterAC:ArrayCollection = new ArrayCollection;
     if (service2.lastResult.response.results.character is ArrayCollection) {
     //there is more than 1 entry
     characterAC = service2.lastResult.response.results.character as ArrayCollection;
     } else {
          //There is only 1 entry. Need to MAKE it an ArrayColleciton
          characterAC = new ArrayCollection([service2.lastResult.response.results.character]);
        //Add all characters to AC
     ac2.addAll(characterAC);
The two major problems with this code is: 1, it's stupidly bloated and 2, ac2 no longer maintains the order of the XML response. First it puts all <character> into my AC, then it puts all <game> into AC. So on and so forth.
In my head I'm trying to do something like this:
ac2 = service2.lastResult.response.results.* as ArrayCollection;
That would then load all results (regardless of type) into an ArrayCollection. I'm guessing a solution is not that simple...
In an Ideal world, whoever created the XML api would just call each result <result> instead of the stupid type tags it currently uses.
I hope all that makes sense.
Regards,
Zaph.

@Zaph31,
Why not use an XMLListCollection instead of an ArrayCollection?

Code works when I step through it, not when run real-time though.

Hi,
I have a bit of code, a trivial problem in fact, that has completely defeated me.
private int recFibonacci(int N, long starTime) {
        long totalTime = System.currentTimeMillis() - starTime;
        if(N <= 0) return -3; //negatives not allowed
        try {
            if (N < 2) {
                return N;
            } else {
                if (totalTime <= 1500) { //if it takes longer than 15 seconds, end.
                    N = recFibonacci(N - 2, starTime) + recFibonacci(N - 1, starTime);
                } else {
                    return -1;//return if taking too long
        } catch (StackOverflowError ex) {
            return -2;//return if overflow
        return N;
//This is the user accessible function for the recursive fibonacci method.
//It calls the private fibonacci function and passes it a startTime value.
//This is so that the startTime is only set at the user's call, not each time the
//function recurses.
    public int recFibonacci(int N) {
        setTime();
        int retN = this.recFibonacci(N, getStartTime());
        if (retN == -1) {
            System.out.println("Calculation is is taking too long, try a non-recursive solution.");
            return -1;
        if (retN == -2) {
            System.out.println("Stack overflow, recursed too deeply. Try a non-recursive solution, or a smaller number.");
            return -2;
        if (retN == -3){
            System.out.println("Fibonacci sequence is undefined for negative numbers.");
            return -3;
        return retN;
    }From the driver I call the single argument method.
When I debug and step through the code it runs perfectly. If the number is large enough to take a little while to execute,i get the appropriate error message. Also, if the number causes a stack overflow, I get that message as well.
When I run the code (realtime not stepping) I always get a strange return value if N is too large. Its always a different value, and I never receive the error code. I am at a complete loss to explain this discrepency.
Any ideas?

Stepping through the code

Using Eclipse, latest build, on a Mac, I'm stepping through the FlexPMD code. I enter in the debug configuration the parameters "-s <src dir>" and "-o <output dir>". Those arguments are successfully passed into FlexPMD but when the FileUtils tries to locate the Flex source files, I have some ActionScript, *.as, files in the <src dir>, I get an error:
Exception in thread "main" net.sourceforge.pmd.PMDException: sourceDirectory does not contain any Flex sources (Specify the source directory in relative (not absolute))
    at com.adobe.ac.pmd.files.impl.FileUtils.getFlexFiles(FileUtils.java:107)
    at com.adobe.ac.pmd.files.impl.FileUtils.computeFilesList(FileUtils.java:52)
    at com.adobe.ac.pmd.FlexPmdViolations.computeFiles(FlexPmdViolations.java:128)
    at com.adobe.ac.pmd.FlexPmdViolations.computeViolations(FlexPmdViolations.java:92)

    at com.adobe.ac.pmd.commandline.FlexPMD.startFlexPMD(FlexPMD.java:115)
    at com.adobe.ac.pmd.commandline.FlexPMD.main(FlexPMD.java:69)
Since the 'args' parameter in the main function is getting the '-s' and '<src dir>' parameters, I'm not sure what is it complaining. I don't see anything in the source code what those parameters are being discarded.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi Brenda!
I don't think I understood your problem.
The error you mentioned means that the source folder you specified does not contain any Flex source files (*.as, *.mxml)
Are you saying that you have a folder with Flex source files, and that those files are not picked up by FlexPMD?
Any FlexPMD clients (command-line, Maven, Ant, ...) are using AbstractFlexPmdEngine which uses the class FlexPmdParameters
I don't see any reasons why your source folder would be discarded.
Best

Unable to printer through network

Hi, I am currently unable to print through the wireless network. I set up the printer yesterday, and it printed ok. The printer is a HP Office Jet Pro Preium . When I try to print I get the message "Unable to communicate with printer. Printer unavailable or not connected". The printer says that it is properly connected to the network. Any ideas?

Hi , Welcome to the HP Forums! I see that you are having trouble installing your HP Photosmart c4580 printer on Mac OS X 10.5.8. And, I am happy to help! I would recommend to try uninstalling the software again, (in case their is still some software partially installed.) Uninstall the Printer Software. And, then try resetting the print system, and verifying and then reinstall the software using this direct link. Hope this helps! “Please click the Thumbs up icon below to thank me for responding.”

How to Step through Scripts that are sent to other Adobe Apps?

A newbie question. In the ExtendScript Toolkit, I'm examining a script that uses BridgeTalk to send a script to Photoshop. I understand how to step through and examine the variables and functions that execute within the Bridge application. But how can I step through and examine the variables that are sent to the Photoshop application? The script executes without breaking as soon as the BridgeTalk script is sent.
Thanks
Help Getting Started with Bridge Scripting

I not sure that you can… What you may be able to do in some cases… is comment out the sending of the bridgetalk message and write the script constructed string message body to the toolkit console… That you might be able to cut and paste to a new script window and run with #target photoshop your other option would be to add lines $.writeln( variable ); at the relevant places in the message body construction…
