Re: Problem start JSWAT

I haven't heard of this sort of problem before. If JSwat was unable to
find the JPDA it would print out a message, or if an exception occurred
you should see a stack trace. Otherwise, it should start normally and
display a window.

So you say it gets stuck on startup. Does that mean it exits without
error or that the program seems to hang indefinitely? On a slow machine
it may take a minute to start up and display the main window.

While you could try JSwat 1.7.1, it may make no difference.
