Attaching and detaching Collaboration Debugger

You must attach Collaboration Debugger to a collaboration object to start a debugging session, set breakpoints, and manage a flow through the business process.

The collaboration object must be active to attach Collaboration Debugger to it. For more information about component states and how to change them, see the System Administration Guide.

When you are finished debugging a collaboration object, detach Collaboration Debugger to resume the normal processing of flows. If you stop a collaboration object then Collaboration Debugger automatically detaches from it.

Attaching Collaboration Debugger

You can attach Collaboration Debugger to a collaboration object in either System Manager or Integrated Test Environment, as described in the following sections:

Attaching Collaboration Debugger in System Manager

Do the following to attach Collaboration Debugger to a collaboration object in System Manager:

  1. In the InterChange Server Express Component Management view, expand the server instance in which the collaboration object exists, then expand the Collaboration Objects folder.
  2. Select the collaboration objects that you want to attach Collaboration Debugger to. You can use standard Windows selection techniques to select multiple user projects for deployment at the same time, such as the following:
  3. Right-click one of the selected collaboration objects and choose Attach Debugger from the context menu

Attaching Collaboration Debugger in Integrated Test Environment

To attach Collaboration Debugger to a collaboration object in Integrated Test Environment, right-click the center icon for the collaboration object in the Test Unit view and choose Attach Debugger from the context menu.

For more information about the Test Unit view, see Using the Test Unit view.
