By running the app in debugging mode (spring-boot:run) with IntelliJ Idea CE, no breakpoints work at all when using Spring Boot 2.2. Instead, when rolling back to Spring Boot 2.1.1, everything works fine. What am I doing wrong? Is there an option/flag to add for 2.2 to make the debugger work?
I would recommend running the app directly from the IDE rather than using mvn spring-boot:run. Doing so will give you the best experience in the IDE.
The release notes indicate that the Spring Boot Maven Plugin now forks the process by default which is the reason why you can't debug the application as you used to with 2.1. If you really have to run the app using the maven plugin, you can disable forking the process (e.g. using -Dspring-boot.run.fork=false)
