I would drop the priority of this ... Komodo has a had a Python debugger since late 2000, we only fixed updating variables while debugging (using the variable viewer) yesterday, and received fewer than 10 complaints about that over the years. While looking at the code, something seemed wrong with our handling of the variables in the interactive shell. I tested it, and it failed, and then wrote the standalone Python code to isolate the problem. Your solution will work sometimes, but not completely. When you're in interactive mode while debugging, you can type arbitrary Python code, but can also use the variable viewer in the UI to change variables. These two functions are handled by different code paths. My recommendation is to resolve this as a limitation, and document the module. ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue9274> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
