Description almson 2012-11-30 09:19:19 UTC
It would be nice if I can set up the debugger to just listen to clients, with any number of clients being able to connect.

Use case: I have a jar that I want to debug. Another application launches the jar to do work. Every time the jar is launched, I want it to connect to the debugger. Perhaps no breakpoint will be hit, or perhaps the debugger will break.

Note: I tried simply launching many debugger listener sessions using the same address (both socket and shmem), and while this was permitted by the UI I got various errors when trying to connect especially using sockets (which I thought would handle concurrency fine). See Exception 634923
