Re: [Zope-dev] another debugging howto, and a question

Here are some draft howto-like things some might find helpful (improvements welcome) :

and a burning question:

how can I invoke zserver such that I will get the interactive debug prompt ? I'd like to have my breakpoints trigger when I access the server in the normal way with a web browser, poke around, let it run on and do it again. I was able to do this in the past and it's useful. Maybe, the monitor is what you need. In a monitor session, you can import pdb.

However, as Zope is multi-threaded, pdb interaction might seriously affect the other threads. To put it another way: I am not sure, whether pdb is thread safe. Dieter
