Hash: SHA1
A new release of bashdb, 3.1_0.05-1, is available for use, replacing
3.00-0.02-2 as the current version.
NEWS:
=====
This is a new upstream release, corresponding to a new bash upstream
release. Note that bash 3.0 will not work with bashdb-3.1_*, nor will
bash 3.1 work with bashdb-3.0_*, due to some backwards incompatible
changes in array variable syntax handling in bash. Since bash-3.1 is now
marked current, I upgraded bashdb as well. This version also replaces the
experimental bashdb-3.1-0.04-1 that was on the mirrors for a few weeks.
A list of changes from bashdb-3.00-0.02-2 is attached; see also the
/usr/share/doc/bashdb-3.1-0.05/ directory.
DESCRIPTION:
============
A bash shell script debugger, with command line, emacs, and ddd
interfaces. It is possible to debug a bash shell script using 'bashdb
file' or 'bash --debugger file'.
UPDATE:
=======
To update your installation, click on the "Install Cygwin now" link on the
http://cygwin.com/ web page. This downloads setup.exe to your system.
Save it and run setup, answer the questions and pick up 'bashdb' from the
'Devel' category.
DOWNLOAD:
=========
Note that downloads from sources.redhat.com (aka cygwin.com) aren't
allowed due to bandwidth limitations. This means that you will need to

QUESTIONS:
==========
If you want to make a point or ask a question, the Cygwin mailing list is
the appropriate place.

Version 3.1 0.05
2006-03-24
- Add complete (command completion),
- Add cd, pwd
- Add gdb-style set/show logging.
- Better checking to see if we have bash 3.1 (as opposed to 3.0)
- GNU Emacs debugging improvements, including...
- Add shell prompt tracking in GNU Emacs (bashdbtrack - like
Python's pdbtrack)
- Patches to allow VPATH (or build outside of source tree)
- Numerous documentation changes
- Break out command files even more.
Version 3.1 0.04 (initial 3.1 release)
2006-01-16
- Showing which command on a line with multiple commmands works again.
Reinstate regression tests which use that.
- Add a loadable routine to read a script into an array fast. This
speeds up the startup on reading large scripts very much.
- Install compiled GNU emacs lisp
- We were reporting script line sizes as one larger than the actual size
- Bash location matches installation in bashdb documentation
Version 3.00 0.03 (bugfix and palindromic-version-number release)
2005-12-10
- Changes to make ddd work better
* "info args" works correctly
* "help run" works
* Do all the directory removing/creating/symbolic linking so that bash
finds the include file it needs. This was real ugly. I couldn't have
undertaken to try to figure this out without my GNU Makefile debugger
and the "write" command.
