AMEN to that! (debugger in DWMX)


I was really hoping that 2004 version would finally include what we lost in CFStudio... alas, i'm disappointed again :(


Anyone know why it isn't in there? Is there not enough demand or is it just too hard to implement?

I struggled with the CFS/HomeSite+ debugging for quite a while trying to get it to be something I could effectively use. I finally decided it was easier and more productive to use cfabort.

Which is a shame, an interactive debugger that actually works in DWMX would really help bring that tool and the language to the next level in my opinion.

  Subject: Anyone sucessfully using HomeSite+ to Debug CF5?

  Hi all,

  I'm trying to get HomeSite+ to successfully debug an application running on
  CF5 and having LOTS of problems.

  Is anyone on this list successfully debugging via HomeSite+ (or another
  other step-through debugger)?

  Currently, I can get the debugger to run, and the application pages to load.
  I can submit, but the time between submitting and the loading of the next
  page is (literally) 10-15 minutes, and it doesn't seem like the breakpoints
  are actually firing.

  I think (but this is only an educated guess) that the cause for both of the
  problems (slowness, lack of breakpoints) is because my "main" index.cfm page
  pulls in a few dozen included .cfm pages, some nested several levels deep.
  Given the size of the application, I can't push everything into a single
  .cfm page for debugging - it wouldn't sync with the rest of the existing
  application.

  What I'm looking for:
    Someone who is successfully using a step-through debugger (e.g. not
  hard-coding CFOUTPUT/CFABORT) in CF.
    Information on how to make that debugger work.
    Information on, if using debugging in HomeSite+, how to speed it up to
  something more real-time.
    Information on, if using debugging in HomeSite+, how to get breakpoints to
  work when your main .cfm calls several levels of nested .cfm pages, and the
  breakpoints are sometimes 4 or 5 levels deep.

  Thanks in advance!

  Cheers,
     +Craig
