I am trying to attach a remote debugger to Rational Rhapsody in order to debug a Java plugin I developed.
The official guide to do this for Rhapsody 8.1 can states:
Add the following debug options to the JVM section of the rhapsody.ini file:
Options=ClassPath,LibPath,Debug1,Debug2,Debug3
Debug1=-Xnoagent
Debug2=-Xdebug
Debug3=-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=6743,server=y,suspend=y
Which seems to be a simple addition of startup arguments for the JVM.
However if I apply this arguments to my Rhapsody it starts as always, however when I open any project containing a plugin call (hence which would start the JVM) it does get stuck while opening it and the application goes to "Not Responding".
I also tried to checkout the "JavaAPILogFile" which without the startup options shows all the Java calls that Rhapsody does to startup a project. If I activate the debugging options this log file stays empty.
Can you connect with your debugger? I think because you say suspend=y it will halt and wait for the debugger to attach.
As soon as you are connected you can debug your plugin.
