PHP IDE :: NuSphere Forums :: View topic

I have read the FAQ but am still confused.

I'm looking at DBG as a way to help me profile an application. It is taking over 2 seconds for it to load and I want to identify what functions are consuming the most time.

I am confused as to how to use DBG. I am running PHP 4.3.4 on a redhat linux webserver. My client machine is Mac OSX 10.3 with the Safari web browser.

I have compiled and installed the server module:

Quote:

Version 2.11.30

Linked as a shared library.

Profiler compiled, enabled

debugger.enable_session_cookie On
debugger.enabled On
debugger.fail_silently On
debugger.ignore_nops Off
debugger.JIT_enabled Off
debugger.JIT_host clienthost
debugger.JIT_level 3
debugger.JIT_port 7869
debugger.profiler_enabled On
debugger.session_nocache On
debugger.timeout_seconds 300

Now do I need to compile and install the dbg_client on my OSX machine? (I have tried to do so without success, as I got an error in make)

If I understand the documentation right, the server module will try to establish a connection with the dbg_client running on my OSX machine when I make request for the script with Safari?

I guess partly why I'm confused is because I do not use an IDE (and don't really see the need to). Do you HAVE to use an IDE in order to profile code?

dbg-cli-2.11.30 does not support profiling so... the only way is to use an IDE.
