Debugger doesn't break at breakpoints

Hi, 

I am using Eclipse 3.1, EPIC 0.3.0 and Perl 5.6.1 on a Win2000 machine.
The plugin works fine in all the situations apart from breaking on breakpoints.
The debugger does not stop at breakpoints. I don't get any error messages.

Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Terry

Hi sascha, 

since I posted the above message I worked out what I was doing wrong. I
though, I'll share it with you since you are having similar problems. 

The problem was that when I right-click on the line that I want to put the
breakpoint at, I was selecting the first option from the context menu (it
reads "Breakpoint"). However, I realised that if I select the second option
in the context menu (it also reads "Breakpoint" - don't know why there are
two!), then it worked fine. 

Hope this helps you,

rgds,

Terry

hi terry,
my context menu has two options 'add breakpoint' and 'add regexp breakpoint'.
i tried both and the debugger has not not stoped.

My context menu has 3 options Add Breakpoint, Add Breakpoint, Add RegExp
Breakpoint and none of them work. Eclipse 3.1, Epic 0.3.0, Perl 5.8.4, JVM
1.5.0, W2K.  The debugger stops at the breakpoints but no stack frame is
displayed. I can stop on a RegExp and it switches to the RegExp pane but
nothing is displayed there. If I enter an expression, it pops up "Choose
Context Stack Frame", but there are none to choose. I believe I have the
right PadWalker. Ideas?

Hi All,
I have the same problem - no breakpoint hits, no matter which I use.  I
am running ActiveState Perl 5.8.6.811 with Eclipse 3.1M5a and the latest
EPIC - 0.3.10.  I installed what looks like the correct PadWalker and no
longer have those problems.  Using Windows XP SP2.  Any ideas?

Guys,

it definitely looks like EPIC/Eclipse 3.1 compatibility problem. I'm running
both Eclipse 3.0 and Eclipse 3.1 RC3 on the same machine and on 3.0 debugger
works just fine. (WinXP, ActiveState Perl 5.8.6.811). On 3.1 both EPIC 0.3.0
and 0.3.10 enter debugging mode but have Step Into / Step Over, etc. disabled,
do not have current line indicator, so basically do not work.
