Bluej has trimmed down the debugging process to make it easier to use for first time developers. The debugging tool is used to set breakpoints, step through code, and evaluate variables. To set a breakpoint, you must be in the code editor window. Click in the breakpoint area (to the left of the code) to set a beakpoint. Bluej places a little stop sign indicating the line of code with the breakpoint.
