quite confused

i read sun's doc JDWP then to its detail on page

http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/guide/jpda/jdwp/jdwp-protocol.html

there 2 tech words on the page which made me quite confused, i can not find definition anywhere about them.

Q1. Out Data

does it mean data from debug to java?

is "out data" in <command set>, <command> or <data> field?

why are there multiple None as value of "out data" (i.e. in <version> and <AllThreads Command>)?

Q2. Reply Data

confused as Q1.

could some experts explain it for me?

thx

I didnt look at the documentation so dont trust me on this.. but maybe I'm right..

As you probably know, JDWP is a packet based stateless protocol.

The request contains the out-data

The response contains the reply-data.

The JDWP packet contains: ID, cmd_set, cmd etc..

The data is comes after that common header and contains object IDs, modifiers etc..
