Version 3.1 0.07
2006-12-10
- Add gdb-like "signal" command
- Add "kill" command for those cases where "quit" doesn't work.
- Add mechanism to set up signal handlers so debugger is entered,
or we just print the signal.
- document how to do call line tracing from within a program, i.e.
like the above signal handling setup, the debugger is not entered
first.
- Allow an optional line-spec on "continue" debugger command.
- Add --enable-getopt option to disable GNU getopt for systems that have
non-GNU getopt like NetBSD
- Fix bug in tracking parameters $1, $2, etc
- Emacs interface bug fixes
- readarray builtin internal changes
- Document updates
- Make sure we don't complain about bash 3.2. This debugger works on both.
Version 3.1 0.06
2006-07-21
- Add gdb 'commands' command:
runs debugger commands at a specified breakpoint
- Add gdb 'info program'. (Shows program status)
- Add ability to invoke from inside a running program rather than
at the outset (set_trace)
- Add a better line tracing:
* shows bash nesting,
* bash subshell nesting
* function nesting
* source line preserving initial indentation
- Add line tracing command-line option in bashdb: -X, and long option --trace
- add ability to turn on and off line tracing from inside a program
- Revise sample sessions in bashdb document
- Sourcing a debugger command file now prints the
command before executing it.
- Executing a string (option -c or --command) shows the command
to be run in the call stack.
- Attempt to get documentation on GNU Emacs section in order. Describe
bashdbtrack.
- Go over documentation yet again. When will I ever get this right?
