Depending upon your goals you may be able to get by with implementing a function and installing it with sys.settrace() from your hosting application. I've managed to implement a full in-application dev IDE built around that capability.
The function you install as a trace handler gets invoked for each line of code being executed as well as each time a new code block/function in the python script is entered/exited. You can use that like a breakpoint - script execution is suspended until the trace function returns. You have full access to the current script scope and can get information about the source code file and line number too. It requires some effort to get advanced debugging features, but it is certainly possible.

I experiment and debug a lot in the interactive environment outside of my application. I was wondering if I could launch ipy from my application and pass it my ScriptScope for debug/experimenting purposes? I know I can launch ipy from my host but I haven't figured how to pass it my scriptscope so I can play with the current objects in the scope. Thanks Danny
