Hello,

Could some kind soul tell me if this what Servoy 4.1 final is supposed to look like? I can't see any debug stuff anywhere... And I have set default perspective

Thank you.

Hi,

seems pretty normal to me. What might be confusing is that not all perspectives do have a 'buttoned' entry as default.

If you look into the 'window' menu choose 'open perspective' > 'other' you will see a list with different perspective.
Be aware of your default perspective: 'form design'.
Once you switch to a different perspective there is no 'buttoned' way back by default, so you have to do this the same way.

It is possible to have (and create) different perspectives and store them on a tab panel at the upper right corner of eclipse.

Another way to reach the debugger is to set a breakpoint in the method you want to debug and start the action that will use this method.
Servoy will warn you that it will switch to a different perspective etc. etc.

Good luck!

Thanks Marc, that is now very obvious! In time, I'll get used to Eclipse...

While on the subject of debugging ...

Under 4.0.1 if I want to run and/or debug a specific method from within Serclipse, I am doing the following:

1 - open the solution that includes that method in a client window
2 - navigate to the method in the solution explorer
2 - right-click on the method in the solution explorer
3 - select 'Debug Method'

I notice that there are a lot of other 'debug as' commands available, such as when you right-click on the method (function) name in the script editor, or in the outline pane. They are often a lot more convenient than what I've described above. Can any of these 'debug as' commands be made to work the same way? When I try to use them I don't get thrown into the debugger, I just get errors and sometimes Serclipse hangs.

those Debug as -> dont work at the moment, maybe we can improve that to have Debug as -> "Servoy method" in the future

But in the outline view you also have "Debug method" that will also work just like in the Solution explorer tree.
