Description

Kent Sibilev posted a cool article, Tutorial on ruby-debug ,which shows off his new Ruby+C hybrid debugger suitable for use with large applications, such as Rails apps, where the debug.rb debugger was just too slow to be useful.

This brings most of the slickness of the breakpointer (just drop a line in your code and wait for the prompt to appear) to the power of the debugger (pop up and down stack frames with ease, step, breakpoint, watchpoint, whatever). Just gem install the thing and hack++.

Looks like the only thing is missing is the DRuby hooks to let the new debugger work with FastCGI (etc.) when there’s no console waiting, and I’m guessing someone will get to that before my lazy butt gets around to scratching that particular itch.
