Debugger not working #21

Open kchojhu opened 3 years ago

kchojhu commented 3 years ago

Hi! I was able to run the Java code perfectly. When I try to run by clicking on 'Debug' then I get an error

''void org.eclipse.jdi.internal.connect.ConnectorImpl$StringArgumentImpl.(org.eclipse.jdi.i... java.lang.String,java.lang.String, java.lang.String, boolean)'

Could someone help how I can fix this or how I can enable debugger? Thanks!

Figured out the issue. Main reason is that Java plugins (Including Java Debugger) require 'reload' to work. So when installing plugins from remote initially would not work. After I followed these steps to persist the plugins on the host then debugger worked!
