Although debugging of emulated midlets is enabled in EclipseME, it does not
currently work. See "Bugzilla Bug 30816 - Cannot debug to breakpoint with
Wireless Toolkit" for more information.
https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=30816

Can you help with this problem?
-------------------------------
* Do you have knowledge of JDI/JDWP?
If so, maybe you could contribute a fix to the Eclipse project.
* Do you have access to some version of the Wireless Toolkit sources?
If so, maybe you could contribute a fix to Sun or Eclipse to fix the
emulator crash.
* Do you have any other ideas on how to solve this problem? ... read more
