This Bugzilla instance is a read-only archive of historic NetBeans bug reports. To report a bug in NetBeans please follow the project's instructions for reporting issues.
Most of the issues though are random and do not have an exact set of steps to reproduce. But here they are: 1). Create a simple app, add a controller/view, do couple of string assignments in controller and show them in view, setup a break point in Controller, start debugger, view the page. Debug panel is shown and Local Variables are shown correctly. After running through the app couple of times, breakpoints are not hit and the View page is shown directly. It happens sometimes after 2 runs and other times during 4 runs - totally random. 2). Sometimes, the breakpoint is hit twice before the page is displayed. This happens mostly if some time is spent viewing the debug variables. 3). Running the Rails app and then debugging it seems to freeze the IDE and had to be kill -9. This is a very common usecase and must be supported.
This is most likely an issue with the debugger back end (RDebug). Submitter: Please read http://wiki.netbeans.org/RubyDebugging#section-RubyDebugging-HowToFileABug and attach logs. It will help us greatly in diagnosing these kinds of problems. Reassigning to Martin, as none of the description is specific to GlassFish V3.
Oh, hi Arun :) Didn't notice, been churning through evaluations. This is an older bug. Does any of this still happen? I'm pretty sure the specific issues you were encountering when this bug was filed are long since fixed. If so, comment as such, we can close as fixed and you can verify.
Please see Peter's last comment and let us know if this still happens to you. Thanks.
I've successfully shown debugging multiple times after that since then. So this issue might have been fixed in the meanwhile.
Thanks. I'm going to close this as fixed. I'm sure the original issues that prompted this report were fixed for 6.5. If any of the behavior recurs, please file a new issue.
