Xdebug on Mac OS X Snow Leopard for use with MacGDBp

Posted March 2, 2010 - 09:04 by stewart robinson

If like me you use MacGDBp to debug your Drupal code then since upgrading to Snow Leopard your variable inspector window will basically show unitialized for all variables.

This is fixed in a beta for xdebug Xdebug 2.1.0beta3. I've compiled it as I couldn't find a compiled version on the net and it is here for you to download. xdebug.so (2.1.0beta3)

Yay. I'm back in the room with debugging Drupal and php in general. I should note that I use the built in PHP, not MAMP e.t.c.

geosay

geosay is a site I built with @dansingerman. It is a free super-local information service for finding out what people are saying, and have said, right where you are. Content is ordered by nearest, not most recent. As well as having content native to the platform, it also aggregates data from Twitter and Foursquare and we plan to add other services. Mobile users get a version customised for that platform.
