I don't have the .java file but I'm trying to build an application which uses
Sun's jdmk. My aim in doing this is to have a decent debugging environment.
I would have though that stabs for local variables should be possible, and
I'd find them useful (especially as the app doesn't work when compiled
with gcj at the moment).
I can take a .class file and compile it with -g and I only get line numbers and
the function types - I don't get any stabs for variables. I can take the same class,
decompile it with jad and get all of the debug info that I expect but jad doesn't
always produce code that compiles cleanly so I'd rather not use it as an
intermediary as I don't really trust it 100%.
Here's the evidence
