Description swpalmer 2010-06-04 16:05:15 UTC 
Product Version = NetBeans IDE 6.9 RC2 (Build 201005312001)
Operating System = Windows XP version 5.1 running on x86
Java; VM; Vendor = 1.6.0_20
Runtime = Java HotSpot(TM) Client VM 16.3-b01

I am debugging an app that makes several native calls via JNA.  Sometimes when stepping through the code it is clear that the thread returns to the free-running state (based on the output of the native code that is being called from Java in a loop), while the IDE claims that it is stuck "evaluating an expression" that is part of the loop in Java code - that expression involves a native call.  From that point on the debugger is very confused.
Comment 1 Martin Entlicher 2010-10-20 14:29:21 UTC 
Java debugger has no control of the native code execution.
It'd be best if we could have a reproducible testcase, to determine if this is fixable in NetBeans.
