    JBoss 7 Eclipse remote debugging configuration?

      I have found various information on the web for setting up remote debugging for JBoss but all the information is dated from 2003. 2004.

       

      The most recent I found was from 2009 but still the information doesn't seem to help me get remote debugging set up for JBoss and Eclipse.

       

      I'm starting JBoss with the standalone.bat file.  Where do I set the port for remote debugging?  I see an entry in standalone.conf for

       

      JAVA_OPTS="$JAVA_OPTS -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8787,server=y,suspend=n"

       

      I uncommented this line and restarted the server, but it doesn't help.  org.jboss.as.remoting seems to be listening to port 9999

       

      Is there a more recent source of information for setting up remote debugging with Eclipse for JBoss 7?

          If you are on Windows OS, you should be using the standalone.conf.bat to configure that. You'll find a similar line in that file which you have to uncomment. That's it.

           

          Then when you start the server using standalone.bat, you'll see:

          =========================================================================

  JBoss Bootstrap Environment

  JBOSS_HOME: <foo>

  JAVA: <foo>

  JAVA_OPTS: -server -Xms64m -Xmx512m -XX:MaxPermSize=256m -Djava.net.preferIPv4Stack=true -Dorg.jboss.resolver.warning=true -Dsun.rmi.dgc.client.gcInterval=3600000 -Dsun.rmi.dgc.server.gcInterval=3600000 -Djboss.modules.system.pkgs=org.jboss.byteman -Djava.awt.headless=true -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8787,server=y,suspend=n

          That's an unrelated log.
