Issue in debugging Tomcat 6 Remote Java application on Eclipse 3.4.2

This is a very simple task. But people get stuck with a timeout issue while the debugger tries to connect to the java vm. Hence have posted this...

create a bat file with below content in your tomcat/bin folder. use this to start your tomcat server.
rem (if it doesn't connect, try 8000)
set JPDA_ADDRESS=8787
set JPDA_TRANSPORT=dt_socket
catalina.bat jpda start

In eclipse go to debug configuration & select remote java application. use localhost if server is local, & set the appropriate port (8787 or 8000 whicever works)
