Description Jonathan Camilleri CLA 2009-05-07 06:43:08 EDT
Build ID:  M20090211-1700

Steps To Reproduce:
1. Write some code
2. Create a breakpoint e.g. at line 20
3. Comment out a block of code that includes e.g. line 20, 
   leaving out some working code e.g. starting at line 50.

Check out the breakpoint, it seems to move to line 50 in my example.

The breakpoint is expected to be disabled automatically when the user comments out part of code.  

The code snippet below is returning an error indicating that the code contains obsolete methods as well, and, I am not sure which are these methods.  It would be helpful if the error message was more specific indicating the line number of the buggy code, if there are any obsolete methods.

When trying to create a breakpoint with the following conditions the code does not break in debug mode:
1. Select Breakpoint Properties 
2. Check enabled
3. Under Enable Condition key in "1==1"
4. Under Suspend select 'condition is true'

import java.lang.*;
public class TestOne {

	/**
	 * @param args
	 */
	public static void main(String[] args) {
		// TODO Auto-generated method stub
		/*
		double balance = 200000.00;
		double payment = 200.00;
		double interestRate = 0.05;
		double interest = 0;
		double goal = 200100.00;
		Integer years = 50;
		
		
		while (years <= 100)
		{
			balance += payment;
			interest = balance * interestRate / 100;
			balance += interest;
			if (balance <= goal) continue;
		
			years++;
		}
		
			
		System.out.println("Cumulative balance: €" + balance + " after " + years + " years.");
		
		balance = 200000.00;
		payment = 200.00;
		interestRate = 0.05;
		interest = 0;
		goal = 200100.00;
		years = 50;
		
		while (years <= 100 && balance < goal) 
		{
			balance += payment;
			interest = balance * interestRate / 100;
			balance += interest;
			if (balance < goal) years++;
			
		}
		
		System.out.println("Cumulative balance: €" + balance + " after " + years + " years.");
		*/
		
		for (Integer count =0; count < 100; count++)
		{
			if (count == 98) continue;
			System.out.println(count);
		}
		
	}

}

NOTE: The IDE Debug perspective has to be opened.  
Navigation: Window > Open Perspective > Other > Debug.

This bug hasn't had any activity in quite some time. Maybe the problem got resolved, was a duplicate of something else, or became less pressing for some reason - or maybe it's still relevant but just hasn't been looked at yet.

If you have further information on the current state of the bug, please add it. The information can be, for example, that the problem still occurs, that you still want the feature, that more information is needed, or that the bug is (for whatever reason) no longer relevant.
