Swordfish Documentation: Debugging Third Party Plugins

Debugging third-party plug-ins

This section contains information on how to inspect during debug session source code of third-party plug-ins delivered together with the Swordfish runtime platform.

To inspect source code of third-party plug-in

  1. Checkout appropriate plug-in project from the Swordfish Repository to your workspace.
  2. Check if the project contains contains source-bundle subdirectory with plug-in sources. In case if this directory is present you can already browse plugin source code or debug third-party plug-in. If the source code directory is missing you can add it according to the instruction below.

To add source-bundle to third-party plug-in project

Source codes for third-party plug-ins are organized in form of source-bundles according to rules described by Eclipse Orbit project.

To create a source bundle:

    Get a source code for the third-party plug-in (information like plug-in version can be found in plug-in's manifest file) and add it to the project as described on Eclipse Orbit wiki.
    • Attach source to the plug-in's binary code as shown on the picture below.
