How do I debug a remote application in my eclipse

I am running my server from outside of my eclipse and now i want to debug it. so is it possible ? If yes how can i do that.

Solution

  • 1) Specify this option on remote JVM.

    -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=n,address=5005

    Note that now the debug server is running at this remote host and port 5005.

    2) In Eclipse, create and run remote debug config under Run > Debug> Debug Configurations... > Remote Java Application.
