NAME

Devel::ebug::Wx - GUI interface for your (d)ebugging needs

SYNOPSIS

  # it's easier to use the 'ebug_wx' script
  my $app = Wx::SimpleApp->new;
  my $wx = Devel::ebug::Wx->new( { argv => \@ARGV } );
  $wx->Show;
  $app->MainLoop;

DESCRIPTION

Devel::ebug::Wx is a GUI front end to Devel::ebug.

The core is a publisher/subscriber wrapper around Devel::ebug (Devel::ebug::Wx::Publisher) plus a plugin system for defining menu commands and keyboard bindings (Devel::ebug::Wx::Command::*) and views (Devel::ebug::Wx::View::*).

The wxWidgets Advanced User Interface (AUI) is used, so it is possible to dock/undock and arrange views.

TODO

make a saner interface for plugins
command is just an action (coderef) with a string id command description ties commands to the CommandManager to create menus
define a service interface
for example for code-viewing, gui management, view management allow enabling/disabling services, commands, views auto-disable commands/views/services with clashing identifiers
configuration interface
allow a configuration view to configure multiple objects (by explicit registration)
notebooks
better editing interface better debugging; edge cases still present, esp. at load time rethink container view interface and the whole concept of multiviews
better handling for program termination
visual feedback in the main window disable commands/etc when they do not make sense
the command manager must allow dynamic menus
command returns a (subscribable) handle that can be used to poll/listen to changes explict use of update_ui is an hack!
break on subroutine, undo, watchpoints
show pad, show package variables, show packages
see the FIXMEs
