It's a shame that debugging isn't usually explained or taught in most courses even though it's one if not the best tool a developer has. It's a good thing that people like you make videos about this to let learners know about it. I want to share a little tip with everyone: you can use a conditional breakpoint to execute whatever piece of code you like, for example automatically edit a variable's value instead of doing it yourself everytime or log something with a print without even touching the code

@@tibettenballs4962 it kinda does, any browser should have the dev tools, you have to find your js file in the sources tab and do the debugging thing there. Otherwise for IDEs you can attach the process which is kinda like the first option but you do all the debugging from the ide window

I’m in my second year of computer science classes and they’re just now showing us how to use a debugger. They really should show us this stuff earlier. It would have been sooo helpful.

I am coding in Java for 2 years and I always used print Statements to Debug. You just changed my entire life with that Video.

That’s so funny because I did put print statements throughout my code to figure it out 🤣🤣🤣

I do the same even after watching this video 😂

At the moment as far as I looked at KZread, this is the only one Chanel where you can fully understand what he is talking about. Even if you are new to programing. Thank you verry much for the amazing content and your clean way to explain this amazing things to us! 😇😇😇

I honestly learnt a lot from this video John. I’ve spent nearly an hour and a half trying things with you and experimenting. PS I was one of the ones that throw print statements everywhere and it kinda gets messy most of the time hahah so thank you!

Hi John, I've recently start studding coding, computers were my passions since ever, and now I've made the jump and pretend to quit from my job and do this for full time, also recently I've discovered your channel, is a huge pool of knowledge and inspiration for me, some topics are still out of my reach as a new student, but i can appreciate the value of this videos, soon some of them would become gold for me. So congratulations for your efforts, it,s something big, and just want to cheer you up!! i will keep having and eye on your videos even if still cant follow every topic. Thanks!!

Thank you very much. I had been programming for over 7 years without using the debug mode. Even after all tge experience, I always learn something new from your videos.

Hey John, thanks a ton for your videos! I am currently an online student pursuing a bachelors in software development and your videos are better than the etexts they use at school. They really make learning Java much easier! I especially love this one and your videos on sorting, but I haven't made it through this series yet and can't wait too. Thanks again and please keep them coming!

I agree with you, watching his video made more sense than the live lecture 😅

You genuinely changed my life. I will save so much time, this feature is so rich, and the fact you can manipulate state and re-express and track those expressions... game changer... thank you

Thanks for the tutorial. I knew most of it except for the conditional breakpoint. I used to help myself by creating dummy if-clauses to check for the condition. Very helpful, especially for beginners!

I have more than 6 years of experience in java, but every time I watch your video, I learn new things :)

Hi John, as usual, well-explained and fun to watch. Thanks for taking the time to prepare and present the videos. Could you perhaps do one on streams... ? Thank you

Best Debugging Video available on KZread. I love the way you covered every scenario which can come in real life. Keep bringing the good content. ❤️

Someone give this man a medal. Thank you so much for this.

Thank you John. This is the first video i am watching to learn how to debug java code and i think i dont have any other video. It is that clear.

Its been a week since I have been one of your videos on my lunch break. Learning something new everyday.

Man, i was using prints all this time I learned a lot from this video, thank you very much

Great explanation on how to debug. I've needed this for quite a while. Many thanks.

A good teacher is hard to find. Esp in tech.

I am new to Java, but quite good at a few other programming languages. I've been so lazy to learn the conditional breakpoint that I've modified my source codes instead to create the condition. Now that you showed it in such a quick step, I feel quite dumb :-). Thanks for the helpful video!

How did i not know that this thing exists.... this makes my life sooo much easier, thank you

The fact that I watch your videos just for entertainment and to learn even though I'm not working on a specific task, makes you no less than a great content creator! please keep it up!

Awesome! Really compact video for understanding the basics. I am working with intelliJ and always got confused with tutorials on debug mode. Thanks!

I made an incredibly large text based game a year ago, and I gave up on it because I got an error that I didn't understand. Stack Overflow didn't help me much either. Now I will go back and debug it with the tips you have given me here.

If you get an error you can't figure out again, post the code as a comment and see if I or someone here can help out!

One more thing to add is the option to view static variables in the variables tab. By default it's not enabled so you have to enable it. Otherwise you'll wonder where your static variables are!

Thank you so much. I have been working as a Java developer for 8 years but I learnt a lot in this tutorial.

debugging by eye and prints can break a new inexperienced programmer, or at least hinder. this kind of debugging tool is so much help.

One of the most informative, specific and thoughtful video on debugging in Eclipse, thanks a ton John. Keep up the great work.

Literally just opened up a whole new world for me.

For a while i've been guilty of using the sysout method because i found the debug tool a bit confusing, but this has upped my game. thanks!

Really great job with this video!! I can't explain how life changing some of this information is. I was wondering John, at some point in the future would you be willing to do code reviews occasionally? It could help with content, and personally I find myself at a standstill currently in my coding life. My friends and co-workers say my code is good, but I'd really appreciate an unbiased opinion. But, regardless, amazing job, thank you so much!

That's a very interesting idea! I can't guarantee anything, but if you would be willing to potentially have your code shared in a video, you can either leave your code here in the chat or email it to me (john@codingwithjohn.com), and I'll see if a code review for it might make a good format for a video that would be informative to others.

This is remarkably well explained, and truly enjoyable. The best among all technical videos I've watched.

Your explanation is clear and neat ! THANKS 🙏

Wow.... I came here to learn some simple breakdown of debugging. Now, I feel capable of debugging. 😎

John, your videos are probably the most helpful ones I came across. Thank you!

This is also good for looking at Java's built-in classes and methods.

Quite excellent. While watching I had some "Yeah, but" or "but what about?" moments and I can say that by the end of the video you quite literally covered all of them. Many larger places with more legacy code might have painted themselves into a corner with Eclipse dependencies. I am going to very soon find out for my next/current work environment, but I've worked at least two places where you pretty much were forced to use Eclipse for various reasons, grumbling about how your favorite IDE was better and more productive was optional.

Yep, the comment I've received the most here was, "Why not IntelliJ?" Although I mainly use IntelliJ, I had assumed most newer learners tended to use Eclipse, but that may not be the case anymore. So I'm planning to do a subscriber poll soon to try and get an idea of the most used IDE, and might end up making a switch for future videos.

@@CodingWithJohn ..from the first year in university we were told to use intellij because it's more commonly used in the industry nowadays. But here in KZread most of the guys I have seen use eclipse so I don't really know how true is that.. Tbh it really doesn't matter cause they have mostly the same functionality imo..

Nice video, I was already aware about it except the conditional breakpoint, it will be going to help me a lot. Thanks John ☺️

Great tips to code like a pro. Debugging make it way easy. Like everyone said: Thanks a ton

John, I think a good future video could be showing us how to use Java Streams!

You are a godsent, perfect timing.

Hey John ! Thank you very much for making a video on such an underrated topic. Just a request, can you make detailed videos on java file system and multithreading.

thx for high quality video lecture john!

Thanks John, for another amazing video tutorial. Kudos to you for being such a great teacher. You do one of the best java explanations.

The conditional one was very helpful, but I have another question: how do you find the exact iteration where the error occurs (without print statement)? There were multiple cases when I had a problem with the code between 400-600 iterations, but I did not know the exact iteration of the bug. With print, it was easy

Thanks John for sharing this type of information. very usefull.
