Re: Module::Build's Build test does not stop at breakpoints

tl;dr ...but...

BEGIN blocks are executed at compile time, i.e. already done before you can set your breakpoint with b .

AFAIR an explicit $DB::single=1 can help.

Should have been mentioned in the docs, see perldebug and perldebtut

HTH! =)

This should not be compile time though, correct? The only BEGIN block is around the use_ok test for the package. The test I'm trying to debug here is the second test, which is not part of a BEGIN block. I already include an explicit $DB::single here also, which seems to have no impact.	[reply]

ok sorry forget what I said, no real idea what blib is good for, looks like dark magic. Cheers Rolf ( addicted to the Perl Programming Language)	[reply]
