I am using AWS's Cloud9 IDE to work on a Spring Boot application.
I have created a "shell command" run configuration that uses the following command to start my application:
mvn spring-boot:run -f pom.xml -DlogPathProperty=/path/to/log/directory
The Cloud9 debugger does not seem to attach to my program by default when I run it this way. Because I'm not using "Runner: Auto" (which appears to do precisely nothing in my environment), I cannot click the bug icon to turn on the debugger.
Research suggests that I should be able to run the above command using mvnDebug
instead of mvn
and then I should be able to attach a debugger, but I'd really like to be able to use the debugger that's built into the IDE. The AWS Cloud9 documentation is pretty opaque, so I could really use some help from a human.

First, click Edit launch configurations and then add the below snippet. And then run "mvnDebug spring-boot:run" It will start listening to the port 8000 and you can click the drop down adjacent to Run button to attach the debugger.
{
"configurations": [
{
"type": "java",
"name": "Debug (Attach)",
"request": "attach",
"hostName": "localhost",
"port": 8000
},
{
"type": "java",
"name": "Debug (Launch)",
"request": "launch",
"mainClass": "",
"args": ""
}
],
"version": "0.2.0"
}
Snapshot below.
And then you should be able to debug the application.
