First of all the pluggin's seems to work for me on 2.02, 2.1M3, ... but only under a base JVM 1.4+. But Anyhow, if you go to the plugin home http://sourceforge.net/projects/javaspider/, it seems that what we get is not really a real version.
( the file have bee deleded only the updatesite.zip is available )
The plugin is an inspector/explorer plugin.
What should you see or do ?
- Start a program fo debug !
- stop at a breakpoint.
- launch the spider view
- Go to the Variable view and RightClick on a selected variable. select "Explore/Explore Raw"
- The variable should be visible on the Spider view.
you can move it where you want. The 3 cryptic sign shown on top of the variable name are a() f X
o a() let you call some method the result is displayed at the right/down and linked with an arrow.
o f let you see some members the result is displayed at the right/down and linked with an arrow
o X let you remove the variable.
You can move all the stuff where you whant, group by topic or whatever you want....
Personnaly, i think we should wait a first official release in order to "Test it".

I do not know what that beast is supposed to do, but have you guys seen who are the authors ? Erich Gamma (Design Patterns, Eclipse-Architect) and Kent Beck (eXtreme Programming)

Hi,
hm, should the spider work with the I20021127 build?
I started a debug, opened the spider view, stepped through the code but do not find any obvious way to get anything visible in the spider view.
Please enlighten me.

it is an "inspector like" plugin, it should appear or fail during Debug.

It would be nice, if someone could give me a clue how to use JavaSpider. I'm running Eclipse 2.0.1 and it seems, that the installation of the plugin was successful (at least the update manager thinks so ;-).
Anyway - apart from a Spider View, which does not open at all (no error message or anything else) there is nothing available to be used. Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Benno
