Description melc 2009-06-12 13:02:23 UTC
To enable debugging of sourceless classes. Displaying class and method names while steping in the code. (Example of this 
feature is found in JBuilder IDE).
Comment 1 Martin Entlicher 2009-06-12 13:20:23 UTC
I see. IMHO ideally we could show disassembled bytecode.
Comment 2 melc 2009-06-15 12:10:22 UTC
I believe to start with, it would be easier to only display the class and method name of the sourceless classes while
debugging. Such feature could be enabled or disabled based on user option. Having the ability of adding class and method
breakpoints, this feature would allow a very informative debugging of sourceless classes.

However if it is possible to additionally provide bytecode it would be even better.

Please inform me if it is also required to submit this issue to debuggerjpda component category. I suppose as far as
issue type is concerned it is considered an enhancement as well as a feature.
