Description Tuan CLA 2007-10-31 22:46:18 EDT 
I wonder how "add watch" function is removed when I debug JSP page. It is always necessary to keep track of variables' value not only in java but also JSP debug mode.
Comment 1 Darin Wright CLA 2007-11-01 09:00:34 EDT 
I don't understand what this bug is requesting.

However, The Java debugger supports Java debugging and JSR045. Thus, a JSP can be debugged with the Java debugger, but it displays Java variables (not JSP variables) as the underlying debug architecture only supplies Java variables.

You should still be able to add watch expressions, etc., that evaluate in terms of the underlying Java variables.

Moving to WTP for comment.

Our default org.eclipse.wst.sse.ui.internal.debug.ToggleBreakpointsTarget doesn't yet support watchpoints.
Comment 3 Nick Sandonato CLA 2011-08-19 09:52:22 EDT 
I opened an enhancement against JDT that will address this.
