====== Debugging in Java ======

===== Enable remote debugging =====
On the command line:
<code>-Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8000,server=y,suspend=n</code>
  * **address** the address to listen to. 8000 is a common value but can be changed at will.
  * **suspend** if the JVM should wait for a debugger to connect before starting execution.
You should now be able to connect to the instance using Eclipse.
