Changing variables in realtime when debugging in eclipse?

Viewed 65492

Using Eclipse, when debugging is it possible to change the value of variables during runtime of a project for testing purposes.

For example, say I have a method that returns the number 5 but for testing purposes i want to output 10 instead. This isn't the problem I'm facing its a little more complex but its just to get my idea across.

Run your application in debug mode then go to variables window. select the parameter then change values according to your requirements. then save (ctrl+s). and go ahead with your changes. Hope this will help.

If variables window is missing. then goto eclipse window->show views->variables
