JavaTM Platform Debugger Architecture
Known Bugs and Limitations
Bug 4450091:
The setValue method sometimes fails with an incorrect
ClassNotLoadedException when the destination Field, LocalVariable, or
ArrayReference element has an array type.
An attempt to use a StackFrame that is no longer valid (i.e. its thread
has been resumed since it was retrieved), can result in a crash in the
target VM.
Generated parser files for JDB use deprecated APIs from the
Java 2 Platform libraries.
Bugs 4159757
and 4415260:
Synthetic fields and methods are not suppressed nor are they
distinguished from non-synthetic members.
In-process debugging through the JDI is not supported.
Constructors have the name "<init>" and method style signatures,
for example the default constructor has the signature "()V".
