.startBoolean .start { ... } ⇒ Boolean

If a block is given, it starts byebug and yields block. After the block is executed it stops byebug with Byebug.stop method. Inside the block you will probably want to have a call to Byebug.byebug. For example:

Byebug.start { byebug; foo }  # Stop inside of foo

The return value is the value of !Byebug.started? before issuing the start; That is, true is returned, unless byebug was previously started.

Overloads:

  • .start { ... } ⇒ Boolean

    Yields:
