This is really starting to tick me off. I just want to get a Calnedar and add to it 6 months:

Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
c.add(Calendar.MONTH,6);

I am debugging in eclipse. After the 2nd line there is no change in the calendar object

What makes you thing that it doesn't change ?
Try a System.out.println on it, before and after calling "add".

Ok I was loooking in 'variables' in Eclipse and nothing was changing. But then I added a watch expression and the value of it did change. Quite annoying...

Don't know how you're doing this
"Variables" are also updated when stepping through the program

"VariableS" window:
GregorianCalendar
fields=int[17]
->Values are changing while debugging.

Anyway, glad you've fixed this.
 
What do you have in that there bucket? It wouldn't be a tiny ad by any chance ...
