Thanks, Chet! I installed bashdb through Synaptic Package Manager of my Ubuntu 8.10 and it was installed into /usr/share/bashdb/, /usr/bin/, /usr/lib/ etc. Not sure these could be found by bash.
How to know if DEBUGGER_START_FILE is defined in pathnames.h and define it this way if not? Also I ried one suggestion found with Google: "To see if your standard bash executable has bashdb support, execute the command shown below; if you are not taken to a bashdb prompt then you'll have to install bashdb yourself. $ bash --debugger -c "set|grep -i dbg" " I am not taken to bashdb prompt and instead get "BASH_EXECUTION_STRING='set|grep -i dbg'". So I guess my bashdb is not set up properly? Thanks! Chet Ramey wrote: > > lehe wrote: >> Hi, >> I am beginning to use bashdb to debug my shell script. There is one >> problems >> here.
