First off I’m not a Java expert by any stretch, nor am I a regular Eclipse user. Due to personal circumstances of a member of our team I have had to step into the breach and fix some bugs in two java applications currently under development.

We have a core application (CORE) and an API which includes a reference to that CORE. What I need to do is debug the API but step into the CORE code. I have all the source code for both projects loaded into the IDE but I can’t hit breakpoints in the CORE. I’m assuming it is using the jar version of the CORE included in the API as opposed to the code in the CORE.

I hope that makes sense.

Cheers

    Change the build path of the second project so that instead of referring to a packaged JAR of the first project, it refers to the project itself.

    In the properties of the second project, go to Java Build Path, remove the JAR from the Libraries tab, and add the first project under the Projects tab.
