New submission from Xavier de Gaye: Pdb sets a handler for the SIGINT signal (which is sent when the user presses Ctrl-C on the console) when you give a continue command. 'continue' is not the only pdb command that may be interrupted, all the commands that resume the execution of the program (i.e. the 'do_xxx' Pdb methods that return 1), except for the ones that terminate pdb, should also set the SIGINT signal handler. These are the 'step', 'next', 'until' and 'return' commands. For example, a 'next' command issued at the invocation of a function when the function is doing a long processing and the user wishes to break into pdb again with Ctrl-C within this function.
It is probably better to fix this issue after issue 20766 is fixed. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 224772 nosy: xdegaye priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: allow to break into pdb with Ctrl-C for all the commands that resume execution type: behavior versions: Python 3.5 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue22135> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
