Edit: I noticed that some people are cutting and pasting the invocation here. The answer I originally gave was relevant for the OP only. Here’s a more modern invocation style (including using the more conventional port of 8000):
java -agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,server=y,address=8000,suspend=n <other arguments>
Original answer follows.
Try this:
java -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:server=y,transport=dt_socket,address=4000,suspend=n myapp
Two points here:
- No spaces in the
runjdwp
option. - Options come before the class name. Any arguments you have after the class name are arguments to your program!
