Debugging with UTF-8 files

Hi,

We are evaluating PhpEd and it is great!

The only thing we found that could be a problem for us is related to UTF-8.

We use UTF-8 everywhere (with mbstring). All our source files are UTF-8 encoded. We selected "UTF-8" in Settings/IDE/Default file encoding inside PhpEd.

The problem is when we are debugging and there is a multi-byte string inside a variable, the value is not displayed when we mouseover it and it is not displayed in the "Watch" tabs.

Everything else work just fine and this is the only issue we found.

Is there a way to solve this situation?

Thanks you,

Kevin Lambert

UTF-8 as well as any other multi-byte encodings are not properly supported by DbgListener 2.16. This problem is solved in dbg-2.18 which will be coming out with PHPED 4.0 in next few days.

If you are interested, here is a list of things our programmers would like to see in the upcoming version (other than the UTF-8 support at debug time):

- The possibility to suppress the sounds (annoying)
- A way to turn javascript off in the internal browser
- An "inspect" option on a variable at runtime that would open a small new window instead of having to add that variable to the "watch" tab
- To fix: Sometimes opening the "find" dialog box takes too long
- To fix: Sometimes cut and paste within big files takes too long


We will wait for the version 4 before buying licences but we have already chosen phpEd as our future editor. It's a really nice product... Keep on the good work!
