Re: [Zope-dev] Re: PDBDebugMode 0.1 Release
You should really try using a editor/IDE that automatically shows the corresponding code along side the debugger, like Emacs' gud-mode which can be invoked with M-x pdb. It rocks! I do that sometimes, but I lack sufficient wizardry to make it work with through-the-web scripts :-) But then, I don't write many of those anymore. Put this in your .emacs: (defvar gud-pdb-marker-regexp ^ \\(.*\\)(\\([0-9]+\\))\\([a-zA-Z0-9_]*\\|\\?\\)()\\(-[^\n]*\\)?\n) That should do it :) Ross ___ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )

It also enables the import of the pdb module in unprotected code. On encountering an error, the port-mortem debugger is invoked with the error's traceback. Once in the debugger you can examine objects, variables, etc. at all levels of the call stack. This is, of course, extremely useful for debugging. Since it only does anything if the instance is running with debug-mode=on, I find this product useful not only for debugging on my development instances, but also for doing quick emergency debugging on a live production site. IOW, if the problem is only reproducable on the production site but not on my development instance, I'll restart the production instance in debug-mode with pdb in emacs, reproduce the error, inspect the call stack. Way cool! What would you think about incorporating a version of this into the Zope2 core for version 2.10? I think we would need to add some additional ZConfig schema to support it, as the mere presence of the product would not be sufficient as an enabling knob (in fact, there mightn't be any product at all). If you're willing, I'd be glad to help land it (I think Z3 already has a similar feature, wired in as a separate server).

I've only just tried PDBDebugMode, very handy since you don't have to put set_trace() in your code (and remember to remove it). I have also sometimes used Chris Withers' zdb product, http://www.simplistix.co.uk/software/zope/zdb, which has some overlap in that it allows you to do this in restricted code, e.g. cmf scripts: from Products.zdb import set_trace set_trace() ... and, very usefully, once in the debugger you can use the l command to see the script source and it gets line numbers right. So Ross, maybe you can borrow some of Chris' code :-) Unfortunately zdb doesn't appear to work with zope 2.9 / python 2.4. I'll file a bug report with Chris.
