Debug the the below breaking at the fist line:
<?php
$newfunc = create_function('$a,$b', 'return "Avarage=" . ($a+$b)/2;');
echo "functio name: $newfunc\n";
echo $newfunc(7,5) . "\n";
?>
Now if you reach the 3rd line and try to "step into" it to execute the
anonymous function, the debugger would give you an error stating that it
cannot reach the file where the function exists, which osofcourse normal
since there is not file where this function is defined.
I don't know if this would be a bug or just a new feature (new feature
is more like it). Would it be possible to disable the "step into" button
when reaching lines that contain such calls? Or at least, give a more
informative error message?
Cheers,
Ali

Sorry, forgot to add, to get the message improved you will need to raise
a bugzilla about it and quote the example you gave in the append to show
how it doesn't cover this.

Dave,
Thanks. But can't it just handles this case the same way it does to
bultin functions for example (as Martin suggested)?
Cheers,
Ali

It would not be possible to gray out the step into buttons (note they aren't grayed out
when you are about to execute a built-in or extension function). As built-in
and extension functions are c code, not php, xdebug won't be able to interrupt
the execution of them (so to xdebug these are atomic). PDT won't know what the next
line will do, even PHP doesn't know what the next line will do until it actually
executes it so PHP+Xdebug isn't able to tell PDT that the next line should not
support step into.
As you have created an anonymous php function which can be interrupted
by xdebug it will be able to step into it like any other function. Xdebug would have to
be to determine it was in an anonymous function and to not allow stepping
into it (a step_into request would be interpreted as step_over). There isn't anything
PDT can do about this except provide a better error message.
You could try raising an enhancement on xdebug itself at http://www.xdebug.org which
would then have some sort of configurable option to allow it to behave the way you want, then
it will be upto Derick to assess the feasibility of this.
