Debugging components in the Application Server Toolkit

 

The Application Server Toolkit, included with the WebSphere Application Server on a separately-installable CD, includes debugging functionality that is built on the Eclipse workbench. Documentation for the Application Server Toolkit is provided with that product. To learn more about the debug components, launch the Application Server Toolkit, select Help > Help Contents and choose the Debugger Guide bookshelf entry. The Application Server Toolkit includes the following:

The WAS debug adapter

which allows you to debug Web objects running on WebSphere Application Server and that you have launched in a browser. These objects include enterprise beans, JavaServer Pages files, and servlets.

The JavaScript debug adapter

which enables server-side JavaScript debugging.

The Compiled language debugger

which allows you to detect and diagnose errors in compiled-language applications.

The Java development tools (JDT) debugger

which allows you to debug Java code.

All of the debug components in the Application Server Toolkit can be used for debugging locally and for remote debugging. To learn more about the debug components, launch the Application Server Toolkit, select Help > Help Contents and choose the Debugger Guide bookshelf entry.

To learn more about Log and Trace Analyzer, launch the Application Server Toolkit, and select Help > Help Contents. To learn about known limitations and problems that are associated with the Application Server Toolkit, see the Application Server Toolkit release notes.
