Eclipse debugger does not recognize new java code

Question

I have added new method to my javacode and put breakpoint at the begin of this method and different places. Eclipse debugger go throw the breakpoints in the old code but not in the new added method. I have cleared my project project-> clear to exclude the cache possibility. for me, it appears that eclipse dont recognize the new added Java code.

Any Idea what could be the problem? I use eclipse Juno Service Release 2.

You need to stop debugging and start the program again since the signature has changed. If you want more hot-swap possibilities you need to consider using JRebel or similar tool.
