[jdt-debug-dev] Tracing excecution/Adding breakpoints to compilation uni

[edacosta@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

Hi everybody.

I need to do this: trace execution, variable changes and throwed exceptions to detect responsability fails based on a components diagram (mapped to classes/methods)

This is my idea: When a launch configuration is launched I want to add (hiden) breakpoints to trace the executution of (probably) any class in the project, including exceptions and method inputs monitoring.
Is this a good approach? What other alternatives do I have?


In the case this alternative is fine: How do I get all the compilation units?, can I add at least method breakpoints to external .class files?


public class LCTLaunchConfigurationType extends JavaLaunchDelegate  {
  public void launch(ILaunchConfiguration configuration, String mode, ILaunch launch, IProgressMonitor monitor) throws CoreException {
    ICompilationUnit[] compilationUnits=[--code needed goes here--]
    addBreakPoints(compilationUnits);
    ...
    runner.run(runConfig, launch, monitor);
  }
}


Thank you for your time.
