I want to have something like this:

long timeout = isDebugModeActive() ? Long.MAX_VALUE : 10000;

Is there any API or System/Environment property to find it out?

    The author of this thread found this solution:

    java.lang.management.ManagementFactory.getRuntimeMXBean().
getInputArguments().toString().indexOf("-agentlib:jdwp") > 0;

    A standard disclaimer seem appropriate, though – this is pretty brittle (in that it is very specific in when it is triggered) and can lead to Heisenbugs (bugs which don’t appear when you’re trying to debug). For many scenarios, a system property or environment variable is probably better.
