Hi:

I must have lost the first submit on this problem so I am re-writing it. This time I will make it shorter.

In order to pinpoint some errors I am getting with my tag library files I added some jasper jar files to my build path and attached the source to it. That way I can have the debugger stop when the exception first occurs and I can hopefully pinpoint the problem.

What I am noticing is as I step through the code the debugger is stepping on comment lines, and skipping around to lines that are not the next one in the source.

It is acting as if the source is not in sync with the jar files that have the classes. I am pretty sure I downloaded the release build source and “binaries” so they should be from the same build.

Is this definitely a problem with my source and binary syncronization or is this a myeclipse issue.

Can you reply to this post and hit the “Insert” button and fill out your system information? Also what version of Tomcat are you using? What OS are you running?

And it wouldn’t hurt to double check the files you downloaded, for example if you downloaded the newest Tomcat:
http://apache.secsup.org/dist/jakarta/tomcat-5/v5.0.18/bin/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.18.exe

when you install it you should have an option to include the source code. If you installed via the zip, or are on unix, the source you downloaded should be this:
http://ftp.epix.net/apache/jakarta/tomcat-5/v5.0.18/src/jakarta-tomcat-5.0.18-src.tar.gz

I checked and I used the following files which I downloaded from http://jakarta.apache.org

jakarta-tomcat-5.0.18.zip
jakarta-tomcat-5.0.18-src.zip

This sounds like an out-of-sync problem between your version of Tomcat and the src MyEclipse/Eclipse is locating at debug time. MyEclipse uses the basic Eclipse JDT debugging model for std java debugging. We do some different things for JSP support but that doesn’t sound like where your problem is arising. Am I correct?

I think I had a source attachement to a wrong src version. I redid my attaches to each jar file in tomcat very very very carefully this time. I have my fingers crossed but it seems to be stepping thru the code nicely.

Perhaps I am just being too careless and have to slow down.

I guess you can consider this problem closed. Sorry for the errors on my end.

thanks for the help.

Thanks for closing the loop with us. Good luck w/ MyEclipse and your tag development.
