OpenJDK breaks on processWorkerExit with no breakpoint

Question

I\'m running tomcat 7.0.21 on OpenJDK

java version \"1.6.0_20\"
OpenJDK Runtime Environment (IcedTea6 1.9.9) (6b20-1.9.9-0ubuntu1~10.10.2)
OpenJDK 64-Bit Ser         


        

Answer 1

In debug mode in eclipse by default, break on uncaught exceptions is checked. Since you don't have a catch method here, it's likely that an uncaught exception is being thrown and the debugger is breaking for you immediately before the exception is thrown. You can turn it off in preferences under Java->Debug.
