To debug a user-created plug-in, the initialization file of EEC (e.g. ec.ini) first has to be modified to include the following lines under the line –vmargs:
-Xdebug
-Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8000,server=y,suspend=n
-Xnoagent
Once the initialization file has been modified, EEC has to be restarted.
