Devel-Command version 0.02 ========================== Devel::Command is used to automatically find and load debugger command extension modules. It provides functions to allow these modules to register themselves in the debugger %DB::commands global. It also provides a sample .perldb containing a modified version of the debugger's DB::DB subroutine, altered to provide the necessary command hooks. INSTALLATION To install this module type the following: perl Makefile.PL make make test make install Then place the following in your .perldb file (or equivalent on your platform): use Devel::Command; That's it. Devel::Command will find all of the command plugins in the Devel::Command:: namespace and load them for you. DEPENDENCIES This module requires these other modules and libraries: Module::Pluggable, Test::More The substitute debugger command loop contained in this module is compatible with Perl 5.8.6; it may or may not work with earlier or later Perls. If this module is of use to you, please write to me; I will lobby to have this functionality be part of the core debugger if there's enough interest.
