About the Debugger

This debugger is distributed freely by iAnywhere Solutions, a subsidiary of Sybase. It is a version of the Adaptive Server Anywhere Debugger which has been modified to debug Java code directly in the Sun VM. It requires JDK1.3 or better. This tool is meant to be used "as is" - there are no plans to release future versions of this debugger.
