Debugging JavaFX

I'm trying to get to the bottom of some weird layout problems in my
application.

To that end I want/need to debug JavaFX classes.

But when I step into JavaFX classes I don't see local variables or
parameter names.

So I thought debug symbols are probably stripped from the official builds.

I rolled my own and tried

    CONF = Debug

and

    CONF = DebugNative

in gradle.properties, recompiled OpenJFX and integrated the libraries
into a little eclipse testproject.

But I still don't see parameter names or local variables.

Is there something else I need to do in order to see them?


Best regards,

Robert
