/usr/java/bin/jdb [options ] [class ]

Solaris only. jdb is the J ava D eb ugger. It is a line-oriented debugger, similar to traditional Unix debuggers, providing inspection and debugging of local or remote Java interpreters.

jdb can be used in place of java , in which case the program to be run is already started in the debugger. Or, it may be used to attach to an already running java session. In the latter case, java must have been started with the -debug option. This option generates a password you then supply on the jdb command line.

Options

-host host

Attach to the running Java interpreter on host .

-password password

Use password to connect to the already running Java interpreter. This password is supplied by java -debug .
