I'm debugging a 3rd party proprietary jar. JD-eclipse generates the source just fine but I can't add breakpoints into the generated source code. Eclipse complains the class file lacks line number info. Is there any way to work around this?

Unfortunately, there is no workaround. If the original class was compiled without debug info it's lost to you - there's no way you can fabricate it out of the void.

I have a feeling it can be done (at least in principle). Why can the decompiler generate understandable code but the debugger can't debug it? What if I regenerate all source code with the decompiler and then compile it with debug info? – TommyQ Dec 17 '14 at 04:33
