Hi

I have Eclipse 3.2 with MyEclipse 5.0.
In the sample hello world jsp page, I do not see line numbers and double clicking on the left column (or toggle breakpoint) is not setting breakpoint.
Help is not telling much.
I have started App Server in debug mode.

Can someone please tell me how to do this.

Thanks

Modha,
When you right click on your JSP page and go to “Open With”, what item has the black dot next to it, to indicate that it’s the default editor? It should be the MyEclipse Visual JSP Designer.

[modha]

I have the DOT next to MyEclipse Visual JSP Designer. I am following the tutorial J2EE Application Development -> Getting Started -> Working with Web Projects.
In the tutorial itself the screen shots show line number sometimes and sometimes there no numbers.

I am using tomcat5.
Preferences -> Tomcat5 -> Launch is in debug mode.

Any idea where I could have gone wrong.
Debugging tutorial is not helping me.

Thanks

In the tutorial itself the screen shots show line number sometimes and sometimes there no numbers.

This is just an editor preference.

Try and check your log file for exceptions, under (<workspace dir>\.metadata\.log) and paste any interesting exceptions near the end of it here that pertain to the break points.

Also paste the result of MyEclipse > About MyEclipse > INstallation Summary here for me.

I did not find any exceptions in (<workspace dir>\.metadata\.log)

Also I tried in debug perspective.
Enable Breakpoints and Breakpoint properties are disabled.

Are you using a web project or a normal Java project? If you right click on the project and go down to MyEclipse, do you see “Add Web Project Capabilities” or do you see “Add Struts Capabilities”?

[modha]

I see Add Struts Capabilities

[modha]

after adding line numbers I can set a breakpoint.
Strange….

[Riyad Kalla]

That is very odd, I suppose it depends where you were clicknig, but toggle breakpoint should have worked. Either way I’m glad it’s working now.
