    [ https://issues.jboss.org/browse/JBIDE-8548?page=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.issuetabpanels:comment-tabpanel&focusedCommentId=12613325#comment-12613325 ] 

Snjezana Peco commented on JBIDE-8548:
--------------------------------------

I have added the following features:

- when the user selects more projects and calls a debug session or the "Configure..." action, all the selected projects will be added to the source attachment
- the preference page shown in the jbide-8548d.png. The user can define 10 key bindings for 10 debug sessions.
The key bindings are Ctrl+d+0 - Ctrl+d+9. The user can define a port, description and decide whether the description to show in the menu. 
The key bindings are defined only in the default scope.
The user can't change or add a key sequence - Eclipse doesn't allow updating key bindings. 

The "Discover Remote Applications" checkbox has been introduced for the performance reason. 
It is set to true by default. The plugin will discover remote processes for debugging when the user opens the "Remote Debug As" menu.

If the user has a lot of debug sessions started with the "suspend=y" option, showing the "Remote Debug As" menu could take some time. The user can uncheck the "Discover Remote Applications" checkbox in that case. The plugin won't auto discover remote processes for debugging, but will add the "Discover Remote Applications Ctrl+d+d" action to the "Remote Debug AS" menu. The user can call this action whenever he wants (when starting or stopping some remote application,for instance).

The new plugin has been added to the above mentioned update site. Attached is the new source code.

> It would be helpful if Eclipse could provide a 'debug as' with auto discover of local java processes, somewhat like jconsole does. Eclipse should also auto associate the debug session with the current project. 
> 'debug as' -> 'remote process x'
