If you're deploying your application via Eclipse, then heldt's comment above is enough for you. However, if you're not you can make use of the remote debugging capabilities built-in to the Java platform .

Import your project into Eclipse
Start JBoss in debug mode (make note of the port being used, it's usually 8787) by editing the configurations to look like the following:
```
 set JAVA_OPTS=-Xdebug -Xrunjdwp:transport=dt_socket,address=8787,server=y,suspend=n %JAVA_OPTS% 
```
Use the debugger in Eclipse to connect to the server process on the debug port. On my setup of Eclipse 3.5, I need to go to Run > Debug Configurations , select Remote Java Application from the sidebar, create a new configuration and set the appropriate connection parameters.

Here are are links to a few tutorials that explain this process in more detail:
