Debugging Jigsaw test cases in an IDE

[David Bosschaert]

Thanks for the help. I managed to get this to work.

BTW I also managed to get debugging set up. Run jtreg once from the
command line, then running the following manually from
.../jdk/test/JTwork/scratch does the trick:
.../jdk/build/linux-i586/bin/java
-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,suspend=y,address=localhost:7777
-cp z.classes/ someTestClass

The simply remote attach debugging from Netbeans works a charm.

Cheers,

David
