Re: Proper debugging of CakePHP
To get the execution to break in a controller, you need to either: 1) set a break point in the particular controller action you're trying to debug, or 2) make sure to step into $Dispatcher->dispatch($url) (line 82 for my version of Cake), then into return $this->_invoke (my line 246 in dispatcher.php), then call_user_func_array (my line 264 in dispatcher.php) should take you into your code. Mind you, I'm using XDebug in vim to do this, but I would be shocked if Eclipse's version didn't support this. On Jun 7, 4:53 pm, littlewoodEd <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > I respectfully disagree.

Re: Proper debugging of CakePHP
I respectfully disagree. I also have XDebug working with eclipse and PDT. I also can set a breakpoint in index.php. I am unable to figure out how to get execution to break in a controller. I've come across other threads in this group where folks are describing the same problem, but no one has answered the question. Is anyone out there successfully single-stepping through controller code? thanks, --ed On Jun 6, 9:45 am, "Chris Hartjes" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > On Fri, Jun 6, 2008 at 9:43 AM, Sake <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > ok, so do I run the debugger on the index.php file?

ok, so do I run the debugger on the index.php file? How does it work? On Jun 6, 9:00 am, Chowsapal <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Apache handles the mod_rewrite stuff.

Apache handles the mod_rewrite stuff. As soon as PHP is called, you will be able to trace the code.

Re: Proper debugging of CakePHP
I use xdebug for php with vim, but there is an xdebug plugin for eclipse also that does what you are looking for. You have to add a few lines to your php.ini, and depending on your setup, add a debug flag to the query string, but it's pretty straightforward.

Proper debugging of CakePHP
Hi, Question: I did a lot of java coding in eclipse in my life and find that the debugging IDE tools in eclipse are incredibly useful. Most importantly, I like that they allow you to step into and out of function calls, view the call stack and variable values at any line of code as the code progresses. Has anybody successfully done this in cakePHP with any tools? I'd like to see the sequence of calls from the time the dispatcher is instantiated to the time that the views are rendered. Just curious if anybody's done this successfully. I've recently installed Eclipse PDT with Zend Debugger in an attempt to do this and had no luck. I'm curious if I should keep trying or if it's impossible. Thanks, Eduardo --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "CakePHP" group.
