Debugger opens *.class file despite there being an overridden *.java file in the project's src folder
When debugging a project where I have put copies of Java files from a dependency in my project's src folder (but in another module) to adjust its behavior, and placing break points in these overwritten Java files, the debugger always opens the *.class file of the dependency, which does not contain my changes.
Example project which works: https://github.com/marecabo/java-debug-demo/tree/works Example project where this issue occurs: https://github.com/marecabo/java-debug-demo/tree/does-not-work
Environment
- Operating System:
RHEL 8.9 - JDK version:
openjdk 21.0.2 2024-01-16 LTS - Visual Studio Code version:
1.88.1 - Java extension version:
v1.29.0 - Java Debugger extension version:
v0.57.0
Steps To Reproduce
- Checkout example project:
git clone -b does-not-work https://github.com/marecabo/java-debug-demo.git - Place a breakpoint in
other/src/main/java/tech/tablesaw/table/Relation.java:261.
This file overrides a file from a dependency and changes its behavior, see https://github.com/marecabo/java-debug-demo/commit/40bb99b2a213d8f93fe56e77a961562c2be7ac8f
- Debug
run/src/main/java/com/project/my/run/Main.java
Current Result
Relation.class is opened which obviously does not show the changes I made in Relation.java. The execution marker (yellow highligted line) is - however - at the line number of the original breakpoint in other/src/main/java/tech/tablesaw/table/Relation.java:261, even if that line in Relation.class only contains } or is even empty.
Expected Result
other/src/main/java/tech/tablesaw/table/Relation.java is opened with my changes.
Additional Informations
So far I found out, that this issue only occurs, when the overridden Java file is not located in the same maven module, where the main class which is debugged resides. As a workaround, moving the overridden Relation.java file to the run module is enough to make it work as expected.
Thanks for your work at this extension.
