Version 7 of atkdebugger

Updated 2003-11-23 14:58:54

ATKDebugger is a C extension to provide specific debugging commands to Tcl. It is a low API to enable one to write debugging tools in Tcl. It requires a patch to Tcl 8.4.3.

last Updated 23.11.2003 Version: 0.20

Downloads and more information including the descriptions of both internal implementation and API can be found at:

These functions are now possible:

  1. debugging in every context: procedure frame, global level, byte coded and directly evaluted
  2. invoking debugger in error case (not catched errors)
  3. breakpoints
  4. invoking debugger per special atk::halt command

The package also contains an example GUI debugger written in Tk. That can be used to debugg all Tcl scripts just by starting it per

   tclsh debugger.tcl yourscriptfile

atkdebugger is full supported and integrated into XOTclIDE
