hey,

I was wondering, is there a way to apply custom environmental variables and/or cookies to dbg-cli sessions?

What I'd truly like is to be able to load environmental variables on startup, and pass them to dbg-cli - either that, or be able to load environmental variables via a config file.

Oh yes, and is there an emacs mode?

dbg-cli 2.11.32 and before does not pass env variables to php. You may want to use HTTP mode and in this case it's HTTP server is responsible for passing them.


what's expected for this mode? dbg-cli supports many gdb-like commands. What else is expected?

Hmm. well, I was hoping to use a php accelerator on my webserver, so I'm not sure how this would affect dbg-cli.

In any case, you pass a pointer to the invoking environment in spawn_process; what I was thinking would be having a hook that loads environmental variables here. That way, I could keep snapshots of
php variable runs around and use them as regression tests.



well, what I would expect is the ability for emacs or vim to be able to track files and lines in these files. ie: each line that dbg-cli steps through would trigger a new buffer to be opened up, and the cursor to be pointed at the corret file and line.

It's related to emacs & vim more than to dbg-cli. Latter supports commands that allow it to run under DDD so theoretically it's possible to run dbg under emacs and vim. Personally I don't use them two, you may try and let me know.
