.add_breakpoint(source, pos, condition = nil) ⇒ Object

Adds a new breakpoint. source is a name of a file or a class. pos is a line number or a method name if source is a class name. condition is a string which is evaluated to true when this breakpoint is activated.

.debug_load(file, stop = false, increment_start = false) ⇒ nil

Same as Kernel#load but resets current context’s frames. stop parameter forces the debugger to stop at the first line of code in the file increment_start determines if start_count should be incremented. When

control threads are used, they have to be set up before loading the
debugger; so here +increment_start+ will be false.

FOR INTERNAL USE ONLY.

Returns:

.start_Boolean .start_ { ... } ⇒ Boolean

This method is internal and activates the debugger. Use Debugger.start (from lib/ruby-debug-base.rb) instead.

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

If a block is given, it starts debugger and yields to block. When the block is finished executing it stops the debugger with Debugger.stop method. Inside the block you will probably want to have a call to Debugger.debugger. For example:

Debugger.start{debugger; foo}  # Stop inside of foo

Also, ruby-debug only allows one invocation of debugger at a time; nested Debugger.start’s have no effect and you can’t use this inside the debugger itself.

Note that if you want to completely remove the debugger hook, you must call Debugger.stop as many times as you called Debugger.start method.

Overloads:

  • .start_Boolean

    Returns:

    • (Boolean)
  • .start_ { ... } ⇒ Boolean
