Wing is indeed a great tool. I use it for local-machine debugging all the time and it has been a godsend.
Question -- has anyone had luck setting up Wing for remote debugging of web2py processes on a different machine? I have been able to remotely debug simple Python scripts, but when I put the Wing hook code in web2py modules, the remote debugger connects to the IDE very briefly then disconnects. So far I have tried putting the hooks in web2py.py and in gluon / widget.py / start(). This seems strange because when running web2py locally from the IDE, web2py.py is used as the "main debug file". I would rather not add the hooks to individual applications (controllers, models and/or modules). Can anyone point me in the right direction?
