Attaching/Invoking Target JVM

In order to attach the debugger to a target JVM, the target JVM must be invoked with the correct parameters. The following hyperlinks show how to invoke the target JVM for the following debugging scenarios: Make sure that you invoke the target JVM with jdkx.x/bin/java, not jre/x.x/bin/java. By default, your PATH uses the JRE java, so you must override this by explicitly invoking the target JVM with the JDK java jdkx.x/bin/java.

The complete details are found in the Connection and Invocation Details of the JPDA (Java Platform Debugger Architecture) -- see How To #5 www.debugtools.com/howto.html
