1). Is Tibco going to add debugging functionality for IM in its Java and ECMA script task? At the moment, you cannot step into the Java or ECMA code.
2). Is it possible to plug in a third party debugger to IM for debugging Java code? If it is, what debugger has Tibco tested and how should it be to configured?
3). Can you provide some guidelines regarding how to optimize IM for performance? I have read the parts in the IM documentation about performance and would like to have some more concrete steps/tips for tuning IM.
4). IM Repository instance version control. What is the best way to go for version controlling the instances?

Resolution
=======

The answer to questions questions 1 and 2 is is likely to be no. You can not attach a debugger to the IM Engine and stop it in your task.  If you want to develop code that is debugged with a 3rd party IDE, then develop it in isolation and call that code from inside of IM.  That way you can run your tests on the external code and reproduce to fix bugs.

Regarding question 3, in IM4.5 we have added an additional document that explains some general tips on how to improve performance. Refer to the Tibco Integration Manager Performence and Tuning Guide

Regarding question 4, version control is not a supported feature in IM4.x  IM5.0 which will have this feature.
