This will stop in the first +function call in <a statement>. + +Alternatively, if a statement terminated with an unhandled exception, +you can use pdb's post-mortem facility to inspect the contents of the +traceback: + + >>> <a statement> + <exception traceback> + >>> import pdb + >>> pdb.pm() + +The commands recognized by the debugger are listed in the next +section. Most can be abbreviated as indicated; e.g., h(elp) means +that 'help' can be typed as 'h' or 'help' (but not as 'he' or 'hel', +nor as 'H' or 'Help' or 'HELP'). Optional arguments are enclosed in +square brackets. + +A blank line repeats the previous command literally, except for +'list', where it lists the next 11 lines. + +Commands that the debugger doesn't recognize are assumed to be Python +statements and are executed in the context of the program being +debugged. Python statements can also be prefixed with an exclamation +point ('!'). This is a powerful way to inspect the program being +debugged; it is even possible to change variables. When an exception +occurs in such a statement, the exception name is printed but the +debugger's state is not changed. + +The debugger supports aliases, which can save typing. And aliases can +have parameters (see the alias help entry) which allows one a certain +level of adaptability to the context under examination. + +Multiple commands may be entered on a single line, separated by the +pair ';;'. No intelligence is applied to separating the commands; the +input is split at the first ';;', even if it is in the middle of a +quoted string. + +If a file ".pdbrc" exists in your home directory or in the current +directory, it is read in and executed as if it had been typed at the +debugger prompt. This is particularly useful for aliases. If both +files exist, the one in the home directory is read first and aliases +defined there can be overridden by the local file. + +Aside from aliases, the debugger is not directly programmable; but it +is implemented as a class from which you can derive your own debugger +class, which you can make as fancy as you like. + + +Debugger commands +================= + +h(elp) + Without argument, print the list of available commands. With + a command name as argument, print help about that command + (this is currently not implemented). + +w(here) + Print a stack trace, with the most recent frame at the bottom. + An arrow indicates the "current frame", which determines the + context of most commands. + +d(own) + Move the current frame one level down in the stack trace + (to a newer frame). + +u(p) + Move the current frame one level up in the stack trace + (to an older frame). + +b(reak) [ ([filename:]lineno | function) [, condition] ] + With a filename:line number argument, set a break there. If + filename is omitted, use the current file. With a function + name, set a break at the first executable line of that + function. Without argument, list all breaks. Each breakpoint + is assigned a number to which all the other breakpoint + commands refer. + + The condition argument, if present, is a string which must + evaluate to true in order for the breakpoint to be honored. + +tbreak [ ([filename:]lineno | function) [, condition] ] + Temporary breakpoint, which is removed automatically when it + is first hit. The arguments are the same as break. + +cl(ear) [bpnumber [bpnumber ...] ] + With a space separated list of breakpoint numbers, clear those + breakpoints. Without argument, clear all breaks (but first + ask confirmation). + +disable bpnumber [bpnumber ...] + Disables the breakpoints given as a space separated list of + breakpoint numbers. Disabling a breakpoint means it cannot + cause the program to stop execution, but unlike clearing a + breakpoint, it remains in the list of breakpoints and can be + (re-)enabled. + +enable bpnumber [bpnumber ...] + Enables the breakpoints specified. + +ignore bpnumber count + Sets the ignore count for the given breakpoint number. If + count is omitted, the ignore count is set to 0. A breakpoint + becomes active when the ignore count is zero. When non-zero, + the count is decremented each time the breakpoint is reached + and the breakpoint is not disabled and any associated + condition evaluates to true. + +condition bpnumber condition + condition is an expression which must evaluate to true before + the breakpoint is honored. If condition is absent, any + existing condition is removed; i.e., the breakpoint is made + unconditional. + +s(tep) + Execute the current line, stop at the first possible occasion + (either in a function that is called or in the current function). + +n(ext) + Continue execution until the next line in the current function + is reached or it returns. + +unt(il) + Continue execution until the line with a number greater than the + current one is reached or until the current frame returns. + +r(eturn) + Continue execution until the current function returns. + +run [args...] + Restart the debugged python program. If a string is supplied it is + splitted with "shlex", and the result is used as the new sys.argv. + History, breakpoints, actions and debugger options are preserved. + "restart" is an alias for "run". + +c(ont(inue)) + Continue execution, only stop when a breakpoint is encountered. + +l(ist) [first [,last]] + List source code for the current file. + Without arguments, list 11 lines around the current line + or continue the previous listing. + With one argument, list 11 lines starting at that line. + With two arguments, list the given range; + if the second argument is less than the first, it is a count. + +a(rgs) + Print the argument list of the current function. + +p expression + Print the value of the expression. + +(!) statement + Execute the (one-line) statement in the context of the current + stack frame. The exclamation point can be omitted unless the + first word of the statement resembles a debugger command. To + assign to a global variable you must always prefix the command + with a 'global' command, e.g.: + (Pdb) global list_options; list_options = ['-l'] + (Pdb) + + +whatis arg + Prints the type of the argument. + +alias [name [command]] + Creates an alias called 'name' that executes 'command'. The + command must *not* be enclosed in quotes. Replaceable + parameters can be indicated by %1, %2, and so on, while %* is + replaced by all the parameters. If no command is given, the + current alias for name is shown. If no name is given, all + aliases are listed. + + Aliases may be nested and can contain anything that can be + legally typed at the pdb prompt. Note! You *can* override + internal pdb commands with aliases! Those internal commands + are then hidden until the alias is removed. Aliasing is + recursively applied to the first word of the command line; all + other words in the line are left alone. + + As an example, here are two useful aliases (especially when + placed in the .pdbrc file): + + #Print instance variables (usage "pi classInst") + alias pi for k in %1.__dict__.keys(): print "%1.",k,"=",%1.__dict__[k] + #Print instance variables in self + alias ps pi self + +unalias name + Deletes the specified alias. + +q(uit) + Quit from the debugger. + The program being executed is aborted. |
