RE: [jdt-debug-dev] HotSwap question

[Samuel Cheung <SCheung@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

So is it possible to modify a class file (e.g. adding instrumental code and
create a new class file), and hot-swap this class file in the debugger?

Thanks.

Yes, HotSwap is triggered off resource deltas. From the delta for a ".class"
file, we find the corresponding ".java" file, and then use local history to
determine fine grained changes in a compilation unit. This allows to only
pop affected methods from the stack, rather than all methods in changed
types.

Q: Is HotSwap triggered off resource deltas to class files? That is, does
the JDT debugger listen for resource deltas to find out which class files
in the output folder have changed, or does it detect changes in some other
way?

Thanks in advance, jeem
