Project folder, classes and breakpoints all have diagonal lines across them

[tangara goh]

Hi experts,

First of all, I am still trying to understand why my Eclipse IDE is not debugging - not showing any stacktrace.

Today, I discovered that all my project folders, breakpoints all have diaganol across

I suspected these are the causes that make the IDE not debugging my project at all.

Hope someone can tell me how to make the breakpoint without the diaganol line across and at the breakpoints.

Tks.

Do you see that little button at the top of the breakpoints tab that looks like a 0 with a line through it (like the breakppoints have)?
That's the Skip All button.  It tells the debugger to skip all the breakpoints (ie not stop at them).
That is set on in the image you show.

(I recommend those help pages by the way).

Hi Dave,

I have been reading lots on the help page but till now nothing is helping me get the IDE going in the debugging.

Furthermore, there is very little infor in the web regarding greyed out of the step in, step over buttons...for the debugging

I am so exhausted I fell off sleeping most of the time cos no matter how I tried it is just not working.

Please take a look at the latest screenshots.  I have managed to make the breakpoints diagonal lines go away but there is a tick instead now.

And then there is this other working set why is it there ?

I have also disabled the step filter function so I am clueless what to do ...

Furthermore, no matter what I tried, there is no stack shown.....

What on earth is going ?  I wish there is an Eclipse version where the debug function is set up already ....and I don't have to figure out how to do...

In the past, I had no problem using Mars...but I am not sure why NEON and Oxygen is just not working.....

I really hope you can tell me what is the configuration that I have to do in order for Debugging to work...

Thanks a million.

Hi all,

I managed to resolve this problem now.

What I did is I chose Open SetUp and highlight installation, what happened next is IDE would 'import' in alot of jars files etc.

I did the same to workspace under the same Open SetUp tab.

Next I went to Windows, Perspecitive, Debug, customize Debug, and then there are many checkboxes, I highlight the Debug which open up to lot of things like breakpoints etc,

I unticked skip breakpoints.

But, one thing is I noticed it came back to ticked skip breakpoint while I check back the steps I what did in order to write out the steps here to share with people who might face the same problems as me.

Hope someone can tell me how to make the skip brekpoints permanently.

Tks.
