Re: debugging Java on the iSeries

Sarah,

To debug Java class on iSeries, you need to create a debug launch 
configuration with type "Java Application in iSeries Server".  One way to 
open launch configuration dialog is to choose WDSC menu RUN > Debug... 
Select "Java Application in iSeries Server" and click "New".  Fill out 
your project, Java class and other information.  Please follow product 
help if you need more details.

"Host Java application" is used for debugging Java on remote Linux / AIX 
system.

Thanks,

[WDSCI-L] debugging Java on the iSeries






I am using WDSC 6.0 ( not advanced). I would like to debug a Java
application using the integrated debugger.  My .class file is in the
IFS of my development AS/400.

Using RSE, I have gone to the "IFS Files" area, then navigated to my
class file. I can right click my "hello.class" file and choose "Run
Remotely in iSeries View". This works as expected.

But if I highlight "hello.class" then choose "Debug as ... Host Java
application" I get an error dialog box with the message "The selected
object is not a Java main type"

If I choose "Debug as... Java application in iSeries Server" I get an
error dialog box with the message "Launch failed. " Details: Launch
failed: no main type found in active editor.

Any ideas?
