Debugging include files with XDebug [message #75276]

Tue, 08 July 2008 15:25

Sorry if the questions is off- but I can't find a solution to the
following problem.

I want to set a breakpoint in a file that is included in the main file.
Launching the main file in the debugger (XDebug) I've expected it to
break in the include file which it doesn't.

Of cause I could set the breakpoint in various locations of the main
file where the included functions are called, but this would be a little
awkward.

Is the scenario I'm describing supported=

Thanks,
Andreas

It should work, can you describe your environment ? for example which version of PDT, what the
structure of your server files is (ie where the include files are) and how the structure is within
your PDT workspace.

You can also turn on the xdebug debug trace by putting
xdebug.remote_log=(log file)
in your INI file where (log file) is the name of a file where you want to capture the log file.

It might be that you need to set up explicit path mapping for your include files when you define
your server.

It might be worth trying PDT 1.0.3 as well if you are using PDT 1.1 to see if it works there.

Thanks for the quick answer. I realize this is not a problem of the
include file, but general. Did not see this earlier as I've had
debugging work before- but not anymore.

Running PDT 2.0 integration build on Ganymede 3.4. xdebug_remote_log is
configured but file not created. Starting debug session puts this into
my log:

!ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 2 1 2008-07-08 21:19:01.593
!MESSAGE NLS missing message: DebugConnectionThread_oldDebuggerVersion
in: org.eclipse.php.internal.debug.core.PHPDebugCoreMessages

!ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 2 1 2008-07-08 21:19:01.671
!MESSAGE NLS missing message: DebugServerTestEvent_success in:
org.eclipse.php.internal.debug.core.PHPDebugCoreMessages

!ENTRY org.eclipse.osgi 2 1 2008-07-08 21:19:01.671
!MESSAGE NLS missing message: DebugServerTestEvent_timeOutMessage in:
org.eclipse.php.internal.debug.core.PHPDebugCoreMessages

These do not appear to be real errors- or is PDT just failing to locate
the real error message?

Thanks,
Andi

Ok, think I've found it. There is a very weird bug with the current
debugging preferences. Neither workspace not project settings are
actually persisted.
Only the run configuration settings actually stay "turned on". Due to
this I was using Zend instead of my installed XDebug.

Should I file a bug for this?

Yes, file it as a bug against PDT 2.0 (or the closest number you can find on bugzilla I suppose).

This seems to have persisted from an old version of PDT 1.0 where this problem also occurred.

Opened this:

https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=240140

Did some source debugging and believe I've found two issues. Do not
understand the code well enough for a patch though- so smbd needs to
look into the bug to either give me support or take over.
