Chapter 9: Debugger - touniez/comp402doc GitHub Wiki

DrJava provides advanced tools for debugging your programs in the Interactions Pane. You can set breakpoints in source files in the Definitions Pane, call methods that stop at the breakpoints in the Interactions Pane, and then interact with programs while they are suspended at breakpoints. Once a breakpoint is reached, users can interact with any variables, fields, or methods that are in scope in the suspended method. Users can also resume the method call, or step through it a line at a time. Finally, the values of local variables and fields can be watched in a table as the method call progresses.
