    <title>JSwat - Sessions</title>

    <h2>Sessions</h2>

    <h3>What are Sessions?</h3>

    <p>A JSwat Session is the object that manages the debuggee VM from
    the standpoint of the debugger. It launches a debuggee or connects
    to a remote debuggee. A Session can suspend and resume a debuggee.
    The Session also keeps a variety of persistent settings called
    properties.</p>

    <p>At present JSwat supports only one session at a time.</p>

    <h3>Session Properties</h3>

    <p>The properties of a Session include the classpath, sourcepath,
    list of excludes, last-used search phrase, watchpoints, main class,
    remote host and port, JVM options and so on. All of these
    properties are initially empty until they are defined during normal
    interaction with JSwat. When JSwat exits it automatically saves the
    properties to a file on disk. The next time JSwat starts, it reads
    those properties from the file.</p>

    <p>JSwat has basic support for multiple sets of Session properties.
    That is, the current Session properties can be saved to an
    arbitrary file and later recalled. This is done through the
    &quot;Open Session&quot; and &quot;Save Session&quot; menu items in
    the &quot;File&quot; menu.</p>
