Wanted debugger! Reward 10 Euro!

I (and everybody i believe) REALLY need a better debugger.
I had to debug every line what i code, because my lines looking like this one:

If (((sp\y >= punkt1\y) And (sp\y = punkt2\y))) And(((sp\y >= punkt3\y) And (sp\y = punkt4\y)))

and it is so hard and annoying for me to use the DEBUG command to make every variable visible.

global vars are ok, but i need to see all vars.
i think it would be usefull to see the global variables, the local variables, the dims, and the lists in the debug menu (and maybe the content of pointers).

also the debugger should make windowevents, to prevent from crashing.

this feature would be much more usefull than all the 3D support.

if someone can realize this, i will pay 10 Euro to them

hopefully st.fighter

Well you could always clean up your code a bit...

Something like:

If a and b
goto commomprocedure
endif

If c and d
goto commomprocedure
endif

if e and f
goto commomprocedure
endif

It's a lot faster to execute this way too, cause it ignores the false conditions and jumps to the next

Sorry I made a mistake in my last reply

The code should be something like:

IF a = b
If c = d
IF e = f
Do stuff here
ENDIF
ENDIF
ENDIF

well you can do what i do before that line or after it depends what u want to debug do:

Messagebox_(0,"Break","Debug",0) or something like that, and now check Show Vairables in the Debug Window and you will see everything

Or the 2nd way to do it is like that:

Messagebox_(0,"Var X= "+Str(X)+Chr(13) + Chr(10)+"Var Y= "+Str(Y),"Debug",0)

hope i helped u

For this you can use:

CallDebugger

This invokes the "debugger" and freezes the programme immediately.

Have a nice day...

You're wrong, PureBasic is smart enough to skip all the unuseful tests. In the following case, the second test will be never ever done (jump is done when the condition is wrong):

Code: Select all

a = 0
If a>0 and a < 10

EndIf

That's kool, didn't know about that.
Usually most compilers don't do that (as you may know).

Thanks for the tip anyaway!
