Re: Setting break point for particular condition in the subroutine

> I tried to set as b Engine::_Execute /INITIAL/i but my script runs without wait.

you're setting a breakpoint on the routine with a condition which checks $_ which doesn't make much sense.

If I where you I would set the breakpoint at first line of body of if($cmd =~ /INITIAL/i) condition, that is unless (fork)

There is more than one way to do it.

Find the line number by investigating the routine with l Engine::_Execute and set b line_number.

Or manipulate your source and include $DB::single=1 before the line you want to break.

Sorry for not mentioned. I tried `$DB::single=1` and I am able to set the break point at the required place. Thanks..	[reply] [d/l]

I am getting the below error only when I try to create child process using fork in the code mentioned in this Thread. `Engine::_Execute(..\..\perl\modules/Engine.pm:122): 122: unless (fork) { DB<1> s Bizarre SvTYPE [37] at ..\..\perl\modules/Engine.pm line 122. Engine::_Execute(C:/Perl/lib/Carp.pm:97): 97: { local $@; require Carp::Heavy; } # XXX fix require to not clea +r $@?` [download] It means there are some localized scalar variables are trying to restore in a child process hence throwing error "Attempt to free unreferenced scalar" There is some modules where carp.pm is used. I replaced all the places of carp with warn and tried but no luck still it is showing the same. Please let me know how to debug this issue.	[reply] [d/l]

No idea, better start a new thread: "Forking Problem: Attempt to free unreferenced scalar" to attract the experts. One tip: Following the local markup conventions using `<p>` instead of `<pre>` will help in gaining acceptance and finding support. =) Cheers Rolf	[reply] [d/l] [select]
