Would you pls tell me a tool to step debug python program?

[Johnny Lee]

Hi,
I've met a problem to understand the code at hand. And I wonder
whether there is any useful tools to provide me a way of step debug?
Just like the F10 in VC...

Thanks for your help.

Regards,
Johnny

What about the "new" winpdb debugger.
It looks really nice.

http://sourceforge.net/projects/winpdb/
http://www.digitalpeers.com/pythondebugger/

create a shortcut like:
C:\Python24\python.exe C:\Python24\Lib\site-packages\winpdb.py -t

the -t switch is important, otherwise it starts in an
encrypted mode".

I have patched winpdb.py (about Line420):

AC_CHAR = "\t"
AC_EXIT = "Alt-X"
AC_BREAK = "F4"
AC_GO = "F5"
AC_NEXT = "F10"
AC_STEP = "F11"
AC_GOTO = "Ctrl+F10"
AC_TOOGLE = "F9"
AC_RETURN = "Shift+F11"

to accomodate the shortcuts to VC Debugger.

I myself used/use "Komodo" for all my developing, it's the best and
easiest to use graphical IDE for python i've found thus far.

Not single stepping, but flow tracing, complete with variables,
parameters and return values. Python Bug Validator.

The pdb module is a basic starting point for Python's debugging
features, and can be useful for a single attack on a single truculent bug.

Wing IDE has a stepping debugger. It's not the only tool with this
feature, but I've found it very convenient, and use it daily. You can
download a one-month evaluation, as with many similar products.
