How to debug che source code in windows?

[qeesung]

I want to debug the eclipse che source code in my windows intellij IDEA. But I do not know how to debug local or remote.

I cloned the repo into my linux machine, then cd assembly && mvn clean install to complile assembly. then I get the target and execute ./che.sh -d to start the che server.

Now I can only debug the assembly-ide-war through port 8000 In my intellij. But if I want to debug docker plugin or ws-master local or remote.m what should I configure? what debug ports should I use?

thx a lot.

Hi! Take a look at this page in the docs dedicated to getting your IDE setup to author plugins. This is how we do some of our debugging.https://eclipse-che.readme.io/docs/setup-che-workspace

Can you tell us a bit about what you are working on?

@TylerJewell Thanks a lot，this debugging document does not seem to be what I want. I am trying to learning eclipse che source code , and want to extend a openshift plugin for workspace. But I still don't find a way to debug in a highly efficient and useful way. T_T. In other words, if I want to extend a new plugin, how to debug in a highly efficient and useful way?

@qeesung what's the problem with debugging docker plugin? It is deployed with a workspace master, so, running Che in a debug mode and connecting to port 8000 should be enough.

@eivantsov Thanks a lot.I have solved my problem.8000 port is correct.^_^
