================================
CATALINA
================================

Create setenv.bat if not exists
Add the following into it:

set CATALINA_OPTS="-agentlib:jdwp=transport=dt_socket,address=9999,server=y,suspend=n"

Start Tomcat with catalina start (or startup?)
First line should be:

"Listening for transport dt_socket at address: 9999"

================================
IDEA Community Edition
================================

Create a ruun configuration:
- type: Remote
- host: localhost
- port: 9999 (should be at the bottom of the page)

Save, and push the debugger button.

Profit.
