debug java program step by step in Eclipse

Question

I would like to debug the whole flow of a java program line by line and I am using eclipse how can I do that?

Answer 1

There are multiple steps required to debug a java program in eclipse such as:

1. Setting breakpoints
2. Starting the debugger
3. controlling the program execution. For line by line use F6 and F5 to step into a method
4. Evaluating variables etc

Putting everthing here will make the answer too long. I advice you to follow this tutorial :
