Target milestone -> 3.3.1.
Comment 2 Gail Chappell 2002-01-22 19:40:20 UTC 
The Debugger documentation has been updated in Netbeans 3.3.1.
There is a new section, titled "The Debug Environment." This 
section describes the annotation types in the Source Editor and the
features in the Debugger window, including the filters and the 
seven views (sessions, threads, breakpoints, and so on) that you
can display of your program.

The section titled "Examining Variables" describes watches and
fixed watches.

The section on "Setting Breakpoints" includes a new help page
on organizing breakpoints into a group.
