...breakpointhook() and sys.__breakpointhook__. By default, sys.breakpointhook() implements the actual importing and entry into pdb.set_trace(), and it can be set to a different function to change the debugger that breakpoint() enters. sys.__breakpointhook__ is initialized to the same function as sys.breakpointhook() so that you can always easily reset sys.breakpointhook() to the default value (e.g. by doing sys.breakpointhook = sys.__breakpointhook__). This is exactly the same as how the existin...
...breakpoints Breakpoints can be inserted by using markers. For example: sys.insert_marker(code, offset) Which will insert a marker at offset in code, which can be used as a breakpoint. To insert a breakpoint at a given line, the matching instruction offsets should be found from code.co_lines(). Breakpoints can be removed by removing the marker: sys.remove_marker(code, offset) Stepping Debuggers usually offer the ability to step execution by a single instruction or line. This can be implemen...
...breakpoints, stepping through the code a line at a time, and so on. The debugger is written in Python itself, testifying to Python's introspective power. On the other hand, often the quickest way to debug a program is to add a few print statements to the source: the fast edit-test-debug cycle makes this simple approach very effective.
