604=head1 DESCRIPTION
605
606Perl debug information is frequently required not just by debuggers,
607but also by modules that need some "special" information to do their
608job properly, like profilers.
609
610This module abstracts and provides all of the hooks into Perl internal
611debugging functionality, so that various implementations of Perl debuggers
612(or packages that want to simply get at the "privileged" debugging data)
613can all benefit from the development of this common code. Currently used
614by Swat, the perl/Tk GUI debugger.
615
616Note that multiple "front-ends" can latch into this debugging API
617simultaneously. This is intended to facilitate things like
618debugging with a command line and GUI at the same time, debugging
619debuggers etc. [Sounds nice, but this needs some serious support -- GSAR]
620
621In particular, this API does B<not> provide the following functions:
622
623=over 4
624
625=item *
626
627data display
628
629=item *
630
631command processing
632
633=item *
634
635command alias management
636
637=item *
638
639user interface (tty or graphical)
640
641=back
642
643These are intended to be services performed by the clients of this API.
644
645This module attempts to be squeaky clean w.r.t C<use strict;> and when
646warnings are enabled.
647
648
649=head2 Global Variables
650
651The following "public" global names can be read by clients of this API.
652Beware that these should be considered "readonly".
653
654=over 8
655
656=item $DB::sub
657
658Name of current executing subroutine.
659
660=item %DB::sub
661
662The keys of this hash are the names of all the known subroutines. Each value
663is an encoded string that has the sprintf(3) format
664C<("%s:%d-%d", filename, fromline, toline)>.
665
666=item $DB::single
667
668Single-step flag. Will be true if the API will stop at the next statement.
669
670=item $DB::signal
671
672Signal flag. Will be set to a true value if a signal was caught. Clients may
673check for this flag to abort time-consuming operations.
674
675=item $DB::trace
676
677This flag is set to true if the API is tracing through subroutine calls.
678
679=item @DB::args
680
681Contains the arguments of current subroutine, or the C<@ARGV> array if in the
682toplevel context.
683
684=item @DB::dbline
685
686List of lines in currently loaded file.
687
688=item %DB::dbline
689
690Actions in current file (keys are line numbers). The values are strings that
691have the sprintf(3) format C<("%s\000%s", breakcondition, actioncode)>.
692
693=item $DB::package
694
695Package namespace of currently executing code.
696
697=item $DB::filename
698
699Currently loaded filename.
700
701=item $DB::subname
702
703Fully qualified name of currently executing subroutine.
704
705=item $DB::lineno
706
707Line number that will be executed next.
708
709=back
710
711=head2 API Methods
712
713The following are methods in the DB base class. A client must
714access these methods by inheritance (*not* by calling them directly),
715since the API keeps track of clients through the inheritance
716mechanism.
717
718=over 8
719
720=item CLIENT->register()
721
722register a client object/package
723
724=item CLIENT->evalcode(STRING)
725
726eval STRING in executing code context
727
728=item CLIENT->skippkg('D::hide')
729
730ask DB not to stop in these packages
731
732=item CLIENT->run()
733
734run some more (until a breakpt is reached)
735
736=item CLIENT->step()
737
738single step
739
740=item CLIENT->next()
741
742step over
743
744=item CLIENT->done()
745
746de-register from the debugging API
747
748=back
749
750=head2 Client Callback Methods
751
752The following "virtual" methods can be defined by the client. They will
753be called by the API at appropriate points. Note that unless specified
754otherwise, the debug API only defines empty, non-functional default versions
755of these methods.
756
757=over 8
758
759=item CLIENT->init()
760
761Called after debug API inits itself.
762
763=item CLIENT->prestop([STRING])
764
765Usually inherited from DB package. If no arguments are passed,
766returns the prestop action string.
767
768=item CLIENT->stop()
769
770Called when execution stops (w/ args file, line).
771
772=item CLIENT->idle()
773
774Called while stopped (can be a client event loop).
775
776=item CLIENT->poststop([STRING])
777
778Usually inherited from DB package. If no arguments are passed,
779returns the poststop action string.
780
781=item CLIENT->evalcode(STRING)
782
783Usually inherited from DB package. Ask for a STRING to be C<eval>-ed
784in executing code context.
785
786=item CLIENT->cleanup()
787
788Called just before exit.
789
790=item CLIENT->output(LIST)
791
792Called when API must show a message (warnings, errors etc.).

797
798=head1 BUGS
799
800The interface defined by this module is missing some of the later additions
801to perl's debugging functionality. As such, this interface should be considered
802highly experimental and subject to change.
