Xdebug and provides a range of features to improve the PHP development
experience.
Step Debugging
A way to step through your code in your IDE or editor while the script is
executing.
Improvements to PHP's error reporting
An improved var_dump() function, stack traces for Notices, Warnings, Errors
and Exceptions to highlight the code path to the error
Tracing
Writes every function call, with arguments and invocation location to disk.
Optionally also includes every variable assignment and return value for
each function.
Profiling
Allows you, with the help of visualisation tools, to analyse the
performance of your PHP application and find bottlenecks.
Code Coverage Analysis
To show which parts of your code base are executed when running unit tests
with PHP Unit. |

Release notes
Version 1.3.0rc2
(beta)
|
= The error handlers also needs to support the long form "continue" here as return command. (Derick) = Fixed bug in deleting absolute breakpoints on Windows. (Derick) = Fixed bug #19: The value of xdebug.output_dir in a .htaccess never takes effect. (Derick) = Fixed bug #27: Repeated connect attempts when no debugger is listening. (Derick) = Fixed handling stack traces for when display_errors was set to Off. (Derick) = Fixed segfault where a function name didn't exist in case of a "call_user_function". (Derick) = Fixed reading a filename in case of an callback to a PHP function from an internal function (like "array_map()"). (Derick) = Fixed bug with wrong file names for functions called from call_user_*(). (Derick) + Added the option "dump_superglobals" to the remote debugger. If you set this option to 0 the "show-local" and similar commands will not return any data from superglobals anymore. (Derick) = Fixed bug #2: "pear package" triggers a segfault. (Derick) = Fixed crash bug when a function had sprintf style parameters (ie. strftime()). (Derick) + Added "id" attribute to <var /> elements in responses from the remove debugger when the response method is XML. This makes it possible to distinguish between unique elements by use of recursion for example. (Derick) = Improved performance greatly by doing lazy folding of variables outside trace mode. (Derick) = Fixed a bug with "quit", if it was used it disabled the extension for the current process. (Derick) + Added the "full" argument to the remote command "backtrace". When this argument is passed, the local variables will be returned to for each frame in the stack. (Derick) + Implemented xdebug_time_index() which returns the time passed since the start of the script. This change also changes the output of the tracing functions as the start time will no longer be the first function call, but the real start time of the script. (Derick) + Implemented the "show-local" command (shows all local variables in the current scope including all contents). (Derick) + Implemented conditions for breakpoints in the "break" command.
