My Java application has a problem I'm struggling to solve. I need to breakpoint runWorker() method of ThreadPoolExecutor , but because this is a standard Java class I dont think I can add breakpoints to stop it when I run in my IntelliJ Java tool.

I could view the source in IntelliJ and set a breakpoint but unlike breakpoints in my own code it had no effect.

What is the right approach here ?

    Adding a breakpoint to the ThreadPoolExecutor#runWorker(Worker) method worked for me using IntelliJ; execution was suspended and was able to step though the code. Commented Jul 10, 2019 at 13:14
  • @Slaw thats for confirming it should work, the problem was the attached src was for Java 1.8.1 but I was running as Java 10, when I changed to run as java 1.8.1 it worked. Commented Jul 10, 2019 at 13:47
