in reply to Re: debugging a running perl script
in thread debugging a running perl script

I've been playing with EPIC (the perl plugin) for Eclipse for the past couple weeks. The Debugger **seems** to be broken. By "seems" I mean I, and many others in the EPIC forum have been unable to get it to work but the EPIC authors have it working. Perhaps my problem is trying to use it on Windows :-)

Otherwise, Eclipse and EPIC are pretty spiffy.

I did post on the EPIC forum how to hook in the Tk Debugger and the GUI tkTestRunner as external applications. Not quite as nice as the built in debugger and built in unit test available to the Java types, but I am sure the EPIC team will get there eventually...

P.S. Both of these can be used w/o Eclipse, of course. The CPAN modules are Devel::ptkdb and Test::Unit
