The java.io.Console class requires there to be a Console device (window). How can I debug if I am using this class? I’m using netbeans IDE.
UPDATE:
I figured out how to wrap Sysytem.in with a InputStreamReader and then a BufferedReader. This works even without a Console window, so I can use it instead.
If anyone still answers the question of how to debug using the Console class I’d still be interested though!
Another approach is to start the program outside NetBeans with the usual debugging flags and then use the ‘Attach Debugger…’ item from the Debug menu.
