Description bht 2013-01-24 18:00:50 UTC
I am getting an error "Not able to submit breakpoint LineBreakpoint MySource.java : 99, reason: Breakpoint's source file does not belong into the preferred source root ..."

The preferred source root belongs to a closed project, and it is not listed in the sources window.

How I got there:

If I try to set a breakpoint in a class that exists more than once in open projects then it cannot be set at times.

I have learned that I must adjust the priority in the debugger sources window so moved up the multiple source roots of the project I am interested in.

Finally I got tired of this and closed the conflicting project.

I found that adjusting the priority by moving multiple source roots up above the conflicting one is extremely tedious and annoying in a debugging session. Perhaps the process to deal with this conflict could be improved also.

I think I have a different problem. Sorry.
