Description Jan Stola 2001-06-14 16:32:16 UTC

Netbeans build 210
==================

Only tools debugger.

Steps to reproduce:
-------------------
1. Create exception breakpoint on uncaught.
2. Set "Suspend debugging" property of this breakpoint to False.
3. Start the debuggee that throws the exception.
4. The debugger will not stop on the (uncaught) thrown exception.

Tools debugger is always stopped on the uncaught exception.
So, it should stop in this case, too.

I think that when user explicitly declares to not stop on this exception we 
really should not stop debugging.
I do not want to take resources on such bugs in old implementation of debugger.
