Abstract
Methods and systems are provided for facilitating remote debugging from a local computer with a graphical user interface for debugging application in a computer system comprising an application system and one or more clients. The server receives a request from the local computer to monitor an application invoked by a client and running on the application system. Breakpoint information may be set via a breakpoint user interface initiated at the local computer by the server. Breakpoint information will be sent to one or more computer of the server system. The graphical user interface is provided to the local computer via a debugger interface initiated at the local computer by the server.
Claims11
A method for facilitating remote debugging of an application in a computer system comprising an application system, a first client, and a second client, the method comprising:
- receiving identification information from the first client, the identification information comprising a first client identifier;
- receiving a request from the first client to monitor an application invoked by a second client and running on the application system;
- receiving breakpoint information via a breakpoint user interface initiated at the first client by the server;
- setting breakpoints in the application based on the breakpoint information;
- and
- providing the breakpoint information to the first client via a debugger interface initiated at the first client by the server.
A system for facilitating remote debugging of an application in a computer system comprising an application system, a first client, and a second client, the system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory, wherein the processor and the memory are configured to perform a method comprising:
- receiving identification information from the first client, the identification information comprising a first client identifier;
- receiving a request from the first client to monitor an application invoked by a second client and running on the application system;
- receiving breakpoint information via a breakpoint user interface initiated at the first client by the server;
- setting breakpoints in the application based on the breakpoint information;
- and
- providing the breakpoint information to the first client via a debugger interface initiated at the first client by the server.
A system for calling a service provider using a service manager and a local client proxy, the system comprising:
- means for receiving identification information from the first client, the identification information comprising a first client identifier;
- means for receiving a request from the first client to monitor an application invoked by a second client and running on the application system;
- means for receiving breakpoint information via a breakpoint user interface initiated at the first client by the server;
- means for setting breakpoints in the application based on the breakpoint information;
- and
- means for providing the breakpoint information to the first client via a debugger interface initiated at the first client by the server.
