Eclipse Che Debug the Extension

Question

I want to define my own extension for that I am learning existing extension plugin from https://github.com/eclipse/che/tree/master/samples/sample-plugin-json.

How to debug the Eclipse Che Plugin from Eclipse?

I can attach remote debugger to workspace agent server and port but debug pointer doesn't get hit, any pointer will be helpful?

I am also facing this problem. And since extension is running inside docker, I am not sure whether it is possible to debug through docker container. — Joey Yi Zhao, Nov 26 '16 at 01:34

If we switch to "Operation Perspective", we can see the wsagent debug port. From IDE/eclipse, we need to remotely connect to this port.

We need to listent to that port in IDE:

By following above steps, our extension gets the call.
