Is there any way to set breakpoints on all methods of a class?

Is there any way to set breakpoints on all methods of a given class?

I have a huge (2300 lines) legacy class and I need to set breakpoints on all method calls to understand how this mess works.

Solution 1:

You can follow the steps below:

1. Run -> View breakpoints -> Add -> Java Method Breakpoints

2. Class pattern -> full reference of your class (e.g., mypackage.MyClass)

3. Method Name -> * (i.e., asterisk wild card)

Solution 2:

I have discovered workaround :

1. I have set "Toggle Brakepoint" hotkey to Alt+Numpad 0.
2. After that you can click on first method
3. Use "Toggle Brakepoint"
4. Alt+Down - goto Next Method. ( Alt+Up - goto Previous Method. )
5. Repeat 3 step.

Solution 3:

This is similar to Sergey Senkov's answer, but without hotkeys.

In the structure view, click on the first method. Repeat the following for each method:

1. Context Menu Key
2. M to toggle the method breakpoint.
3. Down

Solution 4:

There is a plugin for idea: Simple Toggle All Method Breakpoint.

It allows you to breakpoint all methods / clear all method's breakpoints in one click from context menu on class in Project view.
