[Biojava-l] biojava and Xcode

Hi Koen,

I've never tried it, but would it be able to follow the biojava code if
you had both the source and the class files in the jar?

Another way would be to compile biojava without making the jar file and
put the class files with yours. Then there would be no reason why the
debugger can't follow it out.

I never use a debugger so I'm not quite sure why it couldn't follow it.
I'm mostly a fan of log4j (I guess the 1.4 logging system would work
fine too) and of using bean shell to go step-by-step.
