  • Having the worst time trying to use JDTLS
    1 project | /r/neovim | 11 Dec 2023
    I recommend that you do not configure jdtls like the other language servers, it is better to use the nvim-jdtls plugin.
  • Noob here, would neovim work for my usecase
    2 projects | /r/neovim | 9 Dec 2023
    Java is actually pretty good with Neovim, jdtls and this plugin. One of the best language servers and I'm using it on a regular base with medium to large projects, mostly spring-based. No Android though.

    Sure. Any server that lspconfig supports will work. But for java development is better if you use nvim-jdtls. The documentation in lsp-zero has a guide on how to setup nvim-jdtls.

    I agree with you, I spend 2 days just trying to figure out how to make nvim-dap remotely connect to a JVM debugger to debug Scala applications, it turned out that I needed to download a server that implements VSCode Debug Protocol, the Microsoft java-debug implementation, compile it myself, and also install the Eclipse JDTLS, add java-debug as a bundle for JDTLS, install the nvim-jdtls plugin, configure a custom adapter for Scala to launch vscode.java.startDebugSession through Eclipse Jdtls to connect to a remote instance launched with Gradle (must be Gradle, I'm using a framework that loads my classes externally, there is no main method at all).
  • Using Neovim to work with Spring Boot
    7 projects | /r/neovim | 19 Jul 2022
    Hi! I use Neovim with springboot mostly when studying or working on personal projects, here's the way I do it: - jdtls for lsp with cmp. - LuaSnip for writing boilerplate faster. - Dap and dap-ui with java-debug - I use maven for the most part and run everything through the command line. - trouble.nvim for better diagnostics navigation.
  • How can I install/build java-debug and vscode-java-debug

    Now I wish to install nvim-dap to debug java applications. I already have nvim-jdtls installed, which nvim-dap needs. But for full debuggin capabilities I need to have java-debug and vscode-java-debug insalled as stadet in nvim-jdtls#debugger-via-nvim-dap.
  • Help setting up debugger for java
    6 projects | /r/neovim | 16 Feb 2022
    Now, I am trying to do the same for Java, but I just can't make it work. I installed nvim-jdtls both through Packer and nvim-lsp-installer and followed their documentation here. I installed java-debug as they said and added the required jar file to the bundles in their configuration. I am also calling the jdtls.setup_dap and jdtls.start_or_attach functions inside the on_attach and lsp_installer.on_server_ready functions, respectively. Still, the debugger won't start.

What are some alternatives?

When comparing nvim-jdtls and java-debug you can also consider the following projects:

nvim-lspconfig - Quickstart configs for Nvim LSP

nvim-dap - Debug Adapter Protocol client implementation for Neovim

eclipse.jdt.ls - Java language server

vim-lsp-settings - Auto configurations for Language Server for vim-lsp

nvim-lsp-installer - Further development has moved to https://github.com/williamboman/mason.nvim!
