If I have a breakpoint that is not an instance of JPDABreakpoint (like jsp bp), I have no way to print some text to the debugger output. It would be good to have some way of lookup for the output or something similar.
There is the org.netbeans.modules.debugger.jpda.ui.IOManager class, which knows how to print into the console. The instance of IOManager is retrieved in org.netbeans.modules.debugger.jpda.ui.BreakpointOutput.lookupIOManager(). However, this is not API, therefore it's inaccessible for other modules. The IOManager would have to be added into JPDA APIs...
Is this enhancement still necessary? It's there for more than two years... I'd close it as wontfix if you do not need it any more...
I don't know, I don't work on JSPdbg for a long time and hardly remember why I filed it ;O) Maybe Libor should know, he's the most fresh guy on JSPdbg. If it's just me, I think I filed it once there was no possibility to print out some JSP-related text to console when the JSP breakpoint is reached (like the JSP line number instead of class line number), but I think with the JSR45 I think this is no longer needed, even though I didn't check how it works now.
At least the line numbers are written into the debugger console when a JSP breakpoint is hit. Of course with correct JSP numbering. JPDA debugger is printing the information, I guess it uses the stratum information saved in the breakpoint. Personally, I don't have any other printing requests at this time.
O.K. Thanks. Resolving as wontfix. Reopen when you will need this.
Okay, verifying then.
