Just wondering, is it supposed to be possible to debug JSPs which are statically included <%@ include file=”incLoginCheck.jsp” %> or can one only debug the main jsp file? Thanks!

Basically, yes. For the servers that support JSP debugging (Tomcat 5, WebLogic 7 & 8) this should work just fine. Are you seeing something different?

Yes I am sadly. If I set a break point within the included jsp file, it is ignored. However, the breakpoints I set in the main file that includes the jsp file, those work. I’m running with Tomcat 5

I just verified this with Tomcat 5 and you’re correct. Breakpoints in included jsp’s are not being hit. There appears to be an issue with associating the line with the include class. I don’t know if this is a problem with Tomcat 5’s JSR-045 implementation or ours, but I’ve entered it as a defect so we can get to the bottoom of it for the GA release.

Thanks for reporting it and sorry for the inconvenience.

The GA release (v2.5.0) partially addresses this issue. You can now set breakpoints before any included JSP’s and when you execute a “step over” on the include line, you’ll be taken through the include file. However, this only works on Tomcat 5 and Bejy Tiger, not on WebLogic due to the way it creates its source maps.
