stdout arguments, making it possible to redirect input and output
for remote debugging.

Backported to 2.4.

the debugger enter inside pdb.set_trace.

Patch #1061767: make pdb.set_trace enter enter at the stack frame
calling pdb.set_trace().

1) When a breakpoint is set via a function name:
- the breakpoint gets the lineno of the def statement
- a new funcname attribute is attached to the breakpoint

2) bdb.effective() calls new function checkfuncname() to handle:
- def statement is executed: don't break.
- a first executable line of a function with a breakpoint on the lineno of the
def statement is reached: break.

This fixes bugs 976878, 926369 and 875404. Thanks Ilya Sandler.

From SF patch #852334.

(or how do I "mark" something to be a candidate?)

fixed an old buglet that caused bdb to be unable to
continue in the botframe, after a breakpoint was set.
the key idea is not to set botframe to the bottom level frame,
but its f_back, which actually might be None.
Additional changes: migrated old exception trick to use
sys._getframe(), which exists both in 2.1 and 2.2 .

Note: I believe Mark Hammond needs to look over his code now.
F5 correctly starts up in the debugger, but later on doesn't stop at a given
breakpoint any longer.

Windows: apply normcase() as well as abspath().  (Note: this isn't
needed to make IDLE work, but it's a good idea anyway.)

Bugfix candidate -- both 2.2.1 and 2.1.3.

into "raise Exception".

fixes the problem reported in SF bug #477023 (Jonathan Mark): "pdb:
unexpected path confuses Emacs".

Return self.trace_dispatch from dispatch_return() to enable stepping through generators. (An alternative would be to create a new "yield" debugger event, but that involves many more changes, and might break Bdb subclasses.)

This was found by Neal Norwitz's PyChecker.

added test script and expected output file as well
this closes patch 103297.
__all__ attributes will be added to other modules without first submitting
a patch, just adding the necessary line to the test script to verify
more-or-less correct implementation.

    1. Comments at the beginning of the module, before
       functions, and before classes have been turned
       into docstrings.

    2. Tabs are normalized to four spaces.

Also, removed the "remove" function from dircmp.py, which reimplements
list.remove() (it must have been very old).

isinstance(x, types.CodeType).

much breakage (esp. in JPython which holds absolute path names in
co_filename already).  This implementation uses os.path.abspath() as a
slightly better way to canonicalize path names.  It implements a
cache.

applied to all filenames before they are compared, looked up in the
breaks dictionary, etc.  The default implementation does nothing --
it's implented as fast as possible via str().  A useful implementation
would make everything a absolute, e.g. return os.path.normcase(
os.path.abspath(filename)).

Add new clear_bpbynumber() with single bpno argument.  (Adapted from
a patch by Richard Wolff.)

Also some cleanup in error messages and moved some comments into a
docstring.

do_delete(); do_clear() was meant.  By Greg Ward.

works and Greg Ward just reported a problem it caused...

bdb.py  now has a class definition called Breakpoint along with
	associated methods.  There's no reason why this class has to
	be there; if you prefer it elsewhere, 'tis easily done.

(Minor reformatting by GvR; e.g. moved Breakpoint's doc string to
proper point.)
