the Idle debugger.
M PyShell.py : Call RemoteDebugger.close_remote_debugger()
M RemoteDebugger.py: Add close_remote_debugger(); further polish code used
to start the debugger sections.
M rpc.py : Add comments on Idlefork methods register(), unregister()
comment out unused methods
M run.py : Add stop_the_debugger(); polish code
M Debugger.py : Added clear_file_breaks()
M EditorWindow.py : Clear breaks when closed, commments->docstrings,
comment out some debugging print statements
M PyShell.py : comments->docstrings ; clarify extending EditorWindow
methods.
M RemoteDebugger.py: Add clear_all_file_breaks() functionality,
clarify some comments.
Use a repr() on the subprocess side when fetching dict values for stack.
The various dict entities are not needed by the debugger GUI, only
their representation.
****************
PyShell: Added functionality:
usage: idle.py [-c command] [-d] [-i] [-r script] [-s] [-t title] [arg] ...
idle file(s) (without options) edit the file(s)
-c cmd run the command in a shell
-d enable the debugger
-i open an interactive shell
-i file(s) open a shell and also an editor window for each file
-r script run a file as a script in a shell
-s run $IDLESTARTUP or $PYTHONSTARTUP before anything else
-t title set title of shell window
Remaining arguments are applied to the command (-c) or script (-r).
******************
idles: Removed the idles script, not needed
******************
idle: Removed the IdleConf references, not required anymore
The default behaviour of idlefork idle is to open an editor window instead
of a shell. Complex expressions may be run in a fresh environment by
selecting "run". There are times, however, when a shell is desired.
Though one can be started by "idle -t 'foo'", this script is more
convenient. In addition, a shell and an editor window can be started
in parallel by "idles -e foo.py".
"Amazing. A very subtle change in policy in descr-branch actually
found a bug here. Here's the deal: Class PyShell derives from class
OutputWindow. Method PyShell.close()
wants to invoke its parent method, but because PyShell long ago was
inherited from class PyShellEditorWindow, it invokes
PyShelEditorWindow.close(self). Now, class PyShellEditorWindow itself
derives from class OutputWindow, and inherits the close() method from
there without overriding it. Under the old rules,
PyShellEditorWindow.close would return an unbound method restricted to
the class that defined the implementation of close(), which was
OutputWindow.close. Under the new rules, the unbound method is
restricted to the class whose method was requested, that is
PyShellEditorWindow, and this was correctly trapped as an error." --GvR
Merged the following py-cvs revs without conflict:
1.29 Reduce copyright text output at startup
1.30 Delay setting sys.args until Tkinter is fully initialized
1.31 Whitespace normalization
1.32 Turn syntax warning into error when interactive
1.33 Fix warning initialization bug
Note that module is extensively modified wrt py-cvs
