java - Changing variables in realtime when debugging in eclipse?

Question

Using Eclipse, when debugging is it possible to change the value of variables during runtime of a project for testing purposes.

For example, say I have a method that returns the number 5 but for testing purposes i want to output 10 instead. This isn't the problem I'm facing its a little more complex but its just to get my idea across.

Answer 1

You should be able to set a break-point, go into debug mode, open the variables views and here change the content of the variables.
