[news.eclipse.tools.jdt] Re: [Debugger] Does "Drop To Frame" work on Mac

[Markus Keller <markus_keller@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Works for me in I20090811-0800 with JDK 1.5.0.

Note that 'drop to frame' does not work for all frames (e.g. it's not 
supported on the top frame of a stack and AFAIR, there are also 
limitations for callbacks from native code).

To see what your VM supports, go to the Debug view, select the process, 
choose Properties, go to the VM Capability page and check the 'Stepping' 
section.
