New submission from David Rieger: IPython's "who" and "whos" command provide a way to list all user-defined variables and inspect them, respectively.
At the moment, a way to work around this would be by either using e.g. "pp locals()" to list all local variables, this would however also display non-user-owned variables which makes the output less readable. Another option would be to open an ipython shell inside the pdb shell, this is however unintuitive, just to achieve such a simple task. pdb should offer a "who" command to list the names of all user-owned variables and a "whos" command to list all variables including their type and the assigned value, as known from ipython. ---------- components: Library (Lib) messages: 298398 nosy: David Rieger priority: normal severity: normal status: open title: pdb lacks debugger command to list and show all user-defined variables type: enhancement versions: Python 3.7 _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue30938> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
