What is Remote Debugging - Java, Eclipse,IntelliJ IDEA, AXIS2

Now I am working as a Software Engineering Intern at WSO2. At the first week of internship with the WSO2 Application Server team, I have learned a pretty cool concept in software development called Remote Debugging of application. I feel that is a pretty strong concept which I should talk about. To learn about remote debugging I have gone through lot of articles all around the Internet. So I thought that getting all those information to one place.
If we look at to the Remote Debugging scenario it will look like this,

Some times you have to debug a application which is not running from it's source code in a IDE. So to do it we use this remote debug concept. In the scenario which is shown above the application runs in a remote machine, but when it runs it will broadcast debug information via a socket deployed. The IDE running locally will capture those broadcast debug information through that socket and it will do the debug through the source code.

JAVA language provides this in its JVM. We can use commands like this to run a application in the remote debug mode in java.

java -Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8000,suspend=n,server=y -jar Name_of_Your_Jar.jar

Then it will broadcast some debug information and will wait until some IDE capture those debug information and start debugging the source code. When Some IDE connects to the Socket specified it will start the debugging process.

Configuring the IDEs will depend on them. The links given below will give you a good understanding about those concepts. Hope you learn some thing from this post. Following links are really interesting to learn about remote debugging.
