pdbx 0.3.0

Remote PDB Debugger Based On PDB

PDBX

What is it
----------
pdbx: A remote pdb debugger Base on pdb
It's:
1) be compatible with pdb
2) remote debug supported
3) xq/xquit commands supported
quit safely from debugger, the program being executed is continued(not abored)
4) redebug supported
5) suspend mode supported
6) pystack(like jstack) supported


Installing pdbx
---------------
1) Download pdbx from https://code.google.com/p/stonelab/downloads/list or https://pypi.python.org/pypi
2) Unpack the archive
tar xvf pdbx-x.x.x.tar.gz
3) Install pdbx
sudo python setup.py install


How to use pdbx
---------------
1) Add pbdx in python scripts
e.g.
from pdbx import Rpdb
rpdb = Rpdb() # Debugger started. Port is 8787(Default Value), Suspend is True(Default Value)
rpdb = Rpdb(9898) # Debugger started. Port is 9898(Specified Value), Suspend is True(Default Value)
rpdb = Rpdb(suspend=False) # Debugger started. Port is 8787(Default Value), Suspend is False(Specified Value)
rpdb = Rpdb(9898, False) # Debugger started. Port is 9898(Specified Value), Suspend is False(Specified Value)
rpdb.set_trace()

2) Remote debug with telnet
e.g.
telnet xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx 8787

3) Interact with pdb commands
Documented commands (type help <topic>):
========================================
EOF bt cont enable jump pp run unt xq
a c continue exit l q s until xquit
alias cl d h list quit step up
args clear debug help n r tbreak w
b commands disable ignore next restart u whatis
break condition down j p return unalias where

xq/xquit are new commands in pdbx
it's used to quit safely from debugger, the program being executed is continued(not abored)

4) Re-Remote debug with telnet
telnet again.

5) use pystack
enable pystack in python scripts and then run the scripts
e.g.
import pdbx
pdbx.enable_pystack()

use kill -30 pid, then scripts will print python thread stack info:
