debugger can't find Applet.class source - how to ignore this [message #52001] Fri, 06 June 2003 19:41

I'm a newbie with Eclipse, doing an evaluation of the product. I ran
into something debugging which seems odd and there must be a way to
configure around it but I don't see anything in the help that seems to
address it, and couldn't find it in the newsgroups.

I'm running an applet class that has been written to run as either an
applet or an application, so the class is written as extending JApplet.
I'm debugging as an application, and a file editor window pops up that
says "Source not found" with the further description "the source
attachment does not contain the source for the file Applet.class". I
suspect that it just means it wants to step into the source code of
Applet.class for me, but that's not something I really need. I don't
expect to find too many bugs in Sun's code. And, the file editor for
the class I'm testing disappears.

First, I'm wondering how to tell it that I don't care if it can't find
the source, but I don't see anything I can configure under the debugger
or in the help screens that addresses it.....well, not yet anyhow.

Second, if I close that window and just keep stepping, I hit an
exception in my code, which it should do, but the file editor for my
file never pops back up.

Third, why didn't it complain about JApplet first? It didn't ever step
into JApplet or complain about missing source, which I would have
expected to happen before it got to the Applet class. And it didn't
even complain about the Applet not having source until long after my
class had been instantiated.

If anyone can enlighten me on this, I'd appreciate it. It's not a
critical issue but it has me curious.

Peace to all,

Russ
