o resetCurrentFrameIndex()
Reset the current stackframe
o resume()

o stop()
Stop the remote thread.
o suspend()

Methods

o getName 
    method getName() returns String public     Signals Exception
Return the name of the thread.

o getCurrentFrameIndex 
    method getCurrentFrameIndex() returns int public
Return the current stackframe index

o setCurrentFrameIndex 
    method setCurrentFrameIndex(iFrame=int)  public
Set the current stackframe index

o resetCurrentFrameIndex 
    method resetCurrentFrameIndex()  public
Reset the current stackframe

o up 
    method up(nFrames=int)  public     Signals Exception
Change the current stackframe to be one or more frames higher (as in, away from the current program counter).

Parameters:
nFrames - the number of stackframes
Throws: IllegalAccessError
when the thread isn't suspended or waiting at a breakpoint
Throws: ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
when the requested frame is beyond the stack boundary
o down 
    method down(nFrames=int)  public     Signals Exception
Change the current stackframe to be one or more frames lower (as in, toward the current program counter).

Parameters:
nFrames - the number of stackframes
Throws: IllegalAccessError
when the thread isn't suspended or waiting at a breakpoint
Throws: ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException
when the requested frame is beyond the stack boundary
o getStatus 
    method getStatus() returns String public     Signals Exception
Return the thread status description

o dumpStack 
    method dumpStack() returns RemoteStackFrame[] public     Signals Exception
Dump the stack.

o getCurrentFrame 
    method getCurrentFrame() returns RemoteStackFrame public     Signals Exception
Get the current stack frame.

Throws: IllegalAccessError
when the thread isn't suspended or waiting at a breakpoint
o suspend 
    method suspend()  public     Signals Exception
Suspend execution of this thread.

o resume 
    method resume()  public     Signals Exception
Resume execution of this thread.

o step 
    method step(skipLine=boolean)  public     Signals Exception
Continue execution of this thread to the next instruction or line.

Parameters:
skipLine - true to execute to next source line, false to next instruction.
Throws: IllegalAccessError
when the thread isn't suspended or waiting at a breakpoint
o next 
    method next()  public     Signals Exception
Continue execution of this thread to the next line, but don't step into a method call. If no line information is available, next() is equivalent to step().

Throws: IllegalAccessError
when the thread isn't suspended or waiting at a breakpoint
o isSuspended 
    method isSuspended() returns boolean public
Return whether this thread is suspended.

o cont 
    method cont()  public     Signals Exception
Resume this thread from a breakpoint, unless it previously suspended.

o stop 
    method stop()  public     Signals Exception
Stop the remote thread.

o getStackVariable 
    method getStackVariable(name=String) returns RemoteStackVariable public     Signals Exception
Return a stack variable from the current stackframe.

Returns:
the variable as a RemoteValue, or null if not found.
o getStackVariables 
    method getStackVariables() returns RemoteStackVariable[] public     Signals Exception
Return the arguments and local variable from the current stackframe.

Returns:
an array of RemoteValues.
