After you click the OK button, NetBeans will attempt to connect its debugger to
eXist. All being well, you should initially see a confirmation that the debugger has
connected to eXist and a list of the running threads that make up eXist, as shown in
Figure 16-9
.
Figure 16-9. NetBeans: confirmation of attachment and list of running threads
From here you can perform all the typical Java debugging steps, such as setting
break-points in the eXist code, showing variable values, getting stack dumps, and
stepping through the running code, stack frame by stack frame. Java debugging in
itself is a huge and advanced topic ,and we do not presume to teach it here; however,
hopefully if you are an aspiring or advanced Java developer, we have provided you
with the information that you need to get started with debugging eXist's code base.
