Use-API Java logic next to the Sightly template - debug and IDE support

Hi guys,

I want to implement a Use-API Java logic next to the Sightly template of my AEM component. Do you know if it is possible to debug the Java code and make Eclipse recognize the class as a Java class in order to have IDE auto completion, highlighting, etc. ?

Thank you

Yes, eclipse will work fine for java, see below

For sightly files, you can use Sightly extension in bracket IDE: https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/dev-tools/aem-brackets.html

Take a look at examples here:

You have to start aem like java -jar <aem-jar> -debug <debug port>

Maybe I had to add one detail.

My Java class is inside the content package (not inside the osgi bundle!) next to the Sightly template. Do I have to configure in any specific way Eclipse in order to debug that Java class and make Eclipse recognize it as a Java class?

Thank you

Do you have any idea about this?

Developing Java logic inside Java Use API next to Sightly template is definitely inconvenient.

Hi,

Did you tried this with Sightly extension in bracket IDE: https://docs.adobe.com/docs/en/dev-tools/aem-brackets.html
