Determine if a java application is in debug mode in Eclipse

Question

I want to change the logging level depending if I'm debbugging or not, but I can't find a code snippet to check if the application is running in debug mode.

I'm using eclipse to debug the application, so if the solution only works within Eclipse it will be fine.

Found the answer on how-to-find-out-if-debug-mode-is-enabled

boolean isDebug = java.lang.management.ManagementFactory.getRuntimeMXBean().
    getInputArguments().toString().indexOf("-agentlib:jdwp") > 0;

This will check if the Java Debug Wire Protocol agent is used.
