This is the error i recieve. All i did was hit f5 after stopping at a breakpoint. there is no reason why the debugger shouldn't have gone to the next line of code (711.76 KB, image/png)

I'm a CS student using eclipse to complete my homework assignments. My professor has us pull our assignments from a repository, which also contain JUnit tests to verify that we are writing the code correctly. In the past I've had no issues doing this, however it seems that all of the sudden I can not use my debugger.

The issue I am having is: anywhere I but a breakpoint, the debugger successfully stops at that location. But if I try to do any sort of step, I get the following error: "The JAR of this class file belongs to container 'JUnit 3' which does not allow modifications to source attachments on its entries". My professor said that eclipse is resuming instead of stepping. So apparently once I try to step after hitting a breakpoint, I'm actually resuming the code resulting in this error. Any help would be appreciated. 

Thank you,

Matt

The debugger has stepped, that editor is displayed when we try to look up the source for a stackframe and could not find it. Specifically that message is telling you that the source could not be found and that the library does not allow you to set a source path on it (its read-only).

What does the debug view look like? Does it have the stackframe for TestCase?

Can you attach a sample program / project that reproduces the issue?
