Interface IJavaWatchpoint

All Superinterfaces:

org.eclipse.core.runtime.IAdaptable, org.eclipse.debug.core.model.IBreakpoint, IJavaBreakpoint, IJavaLineBreakpoint, org.eclipse.debug.core.model.ILineBreakpoint, org.eclipse.debug.core.model.IWatchpoint

public interface IJavaWatchpoint
extends IJavaLineBreakpoint, org.eclipse.debug.core.model.IWatchpoint

A breakpoint on a field. If a watchpoint is an access watchpoint, it will suspend execution when its field is accessed. If a watchpoint is a modification watchpoint, it will suspend execution when its field is modified.

Since 3.1, IJavaWatchpoint also implements IWatchpoint.

Since:

2.0

Method Detail

getFieldName

String getFieldName()
                    throws org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException

Returns the name of the field associated with this watchpoint

Returns:

field the name of the field on which this watchpoint is installed

Throws:

org.eclipse.core.runtime.CoreException - if unable to access the property on this breakpoint's underlying marker

isAccessSuspend

boolean isAccessSuspend(org.eclipse.debug.core.model.IDebugTarget target)

Returns whether this breakpoint last suspended in this target due to an access (true) or modification (false).

Returns:

true if this watchpoint last suspended the given target due to a field access; false if this watchpoint last suspended the given target due to a modification access or if this watchpoint hasn't suspended the given target.
