To: ###@###.###

Hi JPDA Team,

Redefine does not work in for/while loop. You should be able to
reproduce this bug using jdb.exe.

Steps to reproduce this problem:
   a. add line breakpoint in start()
   b. debug
   c. when breakpoint is hit, type continue. You should see output
"Before update..."
   d. change "Before update" to "After update"
   e. redefine, and set line breakpoint (see step a)
   f. type continue. You should see output "After update"
   g. change "After update" to "abcde"
   h. redefine, and set line breakpoint (see step a)
   i. type continue. The output is shown as "After update"

   j. to see "abcde" output, users will have to pop the stack, and
re-execute method start().


Thanks
Hin



Sample program:

package untitled24;

public class Untitled3 {

  private void doSomething() {
    System.out.println("Before update...");
  }

  public void start() {
    for (int i=0; i < 100; i++) {
      doSomething(); // add line breakpoint here
    }
  }

  public static void main(String[] args) {
    Untitled3 untitled31 = new Untitled3();
    untitled31.start();
  }
}
