Re: Automatically "continue" script under the debugger

It's not entirely clear to me if this is the answer to your question, but I think that you may want to look into the use of the envirnment variable PERLDB_OPTS and or the use of an rc file: Quoting from perldebug

The debugger has numerous options settable using the o command, either interactively or from the environment or an rc file. (./.perldb or ~/.perldb under Unix.)

Is that what you wanted?

Not quite. There doesn't seem to be an option to run the script at the start. I didn't know you could have a per-directory .perldb file. I was using the DB::parseoption sub instead. (I forgot the DB:: in my original post) With NonStop the script would load the debugger, run the script and exit (instead of dropping back to the debugger). I tried kill INT, $$; at the end of the script, to no avail: Read more... (1067 Bytes)	[reply] [d/l]
