Need a DebuggerInfo subclass which behaves as follows (this is handled by a switch statement in JPDADebugger.startDebugger): 1. Does not launch any VM. 2. Does select a free dt_socket port number. The port number should be made available with a getter on the DebuggerInfo class after startDebugger returns. 3. Starts listening on the IDE side, i.e. uses JDI accept mode rather than attach mode. 4. Does not open any Output tab; only the debugger console. Thus it mixes characteristics of the two major existing JPDA DebuggerInfo types. Needed for proper impl of the Ant task requested in issue #18708.
I guess it's working now.
Verified ... and Closing all issues resolved into NetBeans 6.7 and earlier.
