in reply to Automatic Debugging
If you set the frame option in the debugger, it'll tell you when you enter a subroutine:
PERLDB_OPTS="frame=1" perl -d myprogram.pl
If you just want a trace (and don't need to debug interactively), you can use the NonStop option:
PERLDB_OPTS="NonStop frame=1" perl -d myprogram
The output with NonStop on (with interspersed program output) looks like this:
Package pathdiff.pl. entering Algorithm::Diff::traverse_sequences entering Algorithm::Diff::_longestCommonSubsequence entering CODE(0x80fdd48) entering CODE(0x80fdd48) entering CODE(0x80fdd48) entering Algorithm::Diff::_withPositionsOfInInterval entering CODE(0x80fdcb8) entering CODE(0x80fdcb8) entering main::match same: a a entering main::discA omitA: b entering main::discB omitB: c
Updated: added output sample
