I have to disagree, while Exception handling and the like have their place. Sometimes when you develop you want to stop execution and look at your memory stack to make sure you didn't over look something. Especially if you are relying on someone else code and it's not a project owned 100% by you. Just my thoughts, they have their place I use PhpEd, because it facilitates this nicely and it VERY customizable from a short hand perspective. -----Original Message----- From: Ashley Sheridan [mailto:ash@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx] Sent: Friday, October 16, 2009 8:05 AM To: Al Cc: php-general@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: Re: Built-in Debugging On Fri, 2009-10-16 at 09:04 -0400, Al wrote: > > Bob McConnell wrote: > > From: Raymond Irving > > > >> Will be ever see built-in debugging features for PHP? > > > > I do not expect there would be.
