Restriction: Local debugging is supported on AIX and Windows
only.
To start debugging a program locally from the command line, issue the idebug command with local debug parameters at a command line prompt.
If you issue the idebug command without any options, the debugger will prompt you for the required information in the Load Program dialog.
Tip:
Before debugging your interpreted Java program, set your CLASSPATH environment variable to
point at all classes and packages you will need to debug your program. Also, ensure that
the source code to these classes and packages is accessible from your local system.
Tip: If you have debugged a specific program before and do not want to use the previous profile options, make sure that Use program profile is not selected or use the -p- option of the idebug command.
Once the debugger user interface is running, you can debug other programs using the same debugger session by selecting File > Load Program from the main menubar.
