binding_n(n = 0) click to toggle source

Returns a binding of n-th call frame

# File lib/ruby-debug-base.rb, line 254
def binding_n(n = 0)
  Debugger.skip do
    if RUBY_VERSION < "1.9"
      Debugger.current_context.frame_binding(n+2)
    else
      Debugger.current_context.frame_binding(n+1)
    end
  end
end
breakpoint(steps = 1, &block)
Alias for: debugger
debugger(steps = 1, &block) click to toggle source

If a block is given (and the debugger hasn't been started, we run the block under the debugger. Alas, when a block is given, we can't support running the startup script or support the steps option. FIXME.

# File lib/ruby-debug-base.rb, line 236
def debugger(steps = 1, &block)
  if block
    Debugger.start({}, &block)
  else
    Debugger.start unless Debugger.started?
    Debugger.run_init_script(StringIO.new)
    if 0 == steps
      Debugger.current_context.stop_frame = 0
    else
      Debugger.current_context.stop_next = steps
    end
  end
end
Also aliased as: breakpoint
