Eclipse Project Setup and Debugging Guide

The document provides instructions for setting up an Eclipse project for debugging a Java application: 1. Check out the project code from source control and run Gradle commands to generate Eclipse files. 2. Import required modules into Eclipse as projects. 3. Configure the Java build path and JRE settings. 4. Set an Eclipse classpath variable for Gradle caches and add modules to the project build path. 5. Configure a remote Java debug launch configuration in Eclipse to connect to the application running in debug mode.

Project Setup in eclipse:

 Check out the project from repo (svn) at C:\IS_srcCode\ver_912


 Run gradlew eclipse command to generate necessary files
C:\IS_srcCode\ver_912>gradlew eclipse
 Import the required modules one by one.
For ex : modules\proxy
File -> Import | General->Existing Projects into Workspace.
Provide the path for proxy module.
 EX- C:\IS_srcCode\version_100\modules-osgi\launcher
 client
 server
 modules-osgi\launcher
 modules\proxy
 modules\migration
 modules\migration-framework
 command-central\spm-impl
 monitors\cmp-impl
 server\product\packages\WmPublic
 server\product\packages\WmRoot
 Set the java if not set properly
Right click to project->java build path->libraries->Add library->jre system library and
select desire jre.
 Set eclipse class path for variable GRADLE_CACHE
Window->preferences->java->Build Path->Classpath Variables-> New and
Set GRADLE_CACHE.= C:\Users\makum\.gradle\caches\modules-2\files-2.1
Required - GRADLE_CACHE is referred as classpath entry in projects .classpath file.

Eclipse search high-level view (Folder level)

Setting GRADLE_CACHE as Classpath variable:

C:\Users\makum\.gradle\caches\modules-2\files-2.1

Adding different module to the current project build path.

Java Build Path -> Projects -> Add -> Check required modules.

Issues when these modules are not added:

Source code is not found while debugging.

Some times adding project (just as above) in runtime, resolves the issue “Source code is not found”
while debugging.
Installing products: IS, UM, Designer etc.
Running in Debug mode

gradlew equinoxAcStartDebugIS

Open /912oct2016/settings/[Link]

Look for below task

equinoxAcStartDebugIS {
dependsOn ':features:is-main:equinoxAcInstallIS'

//Required for running the integration tests

dependsOn copyPolicies, copySSOPropertiesToIS


configure [Link]
configure runConfigIS
cmdArgs 'suspend', 'n', 'address', '9081', '-debug', 'Info'
}

Change last line as

cmdArgs 'suspend', 'y', 'address', '9081', '-debug', 'Info'

This will start the application as

java -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=9081,server=y 


suspend=y -jar [Link]

Setup in eclipse:

Goto debug configuration window: Run-> Debug Configurations

Create new “Remote Java Application configuration” as “is server”

With port provided in gradle task - 9081


Now setting are done

Before starting to debug make sure your Java process is started with Java remote debug settings and
listening on the same host and port, otherwise eclipse will not able to connect successfully.

To debug just click the "Debug" button in the last screen where we have set up host and port.
You can also debug by going to "Debug Configurations" selecting your project in "Remote Java
Application” and clicking on "DEBUG".

Another way of Debug:

This is recommended when project is already built and staging folder is generated.

Execute below command.

staging\installs\profiles\IS\bin>[Link]

For this to work configure your debug-configuration in eclipse for Remote java application at port
10033.

DEBUG_PORT=10033
