Forgot to mention. Chill out dude, this isn't like AOL chat.  Sometimes it takes time and sometimes people mean to reply but get
busy with other things.  Relax, meditate, ask again.  You know, the whole "flies with honey" argument.

>>Hi All:

>>One thing that I can't get to work is debugging. I think that I'm missing a

>>
>>Example: a simple program that prints "hello" to the screen, reads a line

>>use debugger on it to understand how it works.
>>
>>It brings out console window and 'hangs'. I have no idea what it waits for,
>>cause the 'trace into' and 'step over' and 'play' buttons are greyed out,
>>and only 'pause' and 'stop' available. But if I press Enter, it unfreezes,
>>and prints "hello" to execution log, and opens debug pane with 2 threads in
>>it. (I'm sorry, but I am still unsure what these threads are.) That's where
>>it ends. :( although 'play', 'trace in', 'step over' are available,
>clicking
>>them always brings me to the same point (see below).
>>
>>To the left of the debug pane in the source window there is source of
>>FileInputStream.java, with highlited line over
>>return readBytes(b, off, len);
>>
>>Nothing I am doing moves me further in debugging process. I am clueless.
>>Please help.

>>Thank you in advance,

>>Here's the source I am doing this on:

>>package Test2;

>>class Test2 {
>>
>>private static BufferedReader br =
>>new BufferedReader(new InputStreamReader(System.in));
>>
>>    public static void main(String[] args) throws IOException {
