xdebug 2.0.0RC4

Xdebug is a debugging and productivity extension for PHP

Xdebug and provides a range of features to improve the PHP development
experience.

Step Debugging
A way to step through your code in your IDE or editor while the script is
executing.

Improvements to PHP's error reporting
An improved var_dump() function, stack traces for Notices, Warnings, Errors
and Exceptions to highlight the code path to the error

Tracing
Writes every function call, with arguments and invocation location to disk.
Optionally also includes every variable assignment and return value for
each function.

Profiling
Allows you, with the help of visualisation tools, to analyse the
performance of your PHP application and find bottlenecks.

Code Coverage Analysis
To show which parts of your code base are executed when running unit tests
with PHP Unit.

Changes

Wed, May 17, 2007 - xdebug 2.0.0rc4
+ Changes:
- Use µ seconds instead of a tenths of µ seconds to avoid confusion in
profile information.
- Changed xdebug.profiler_output_name and xdebug.trace_output_name to use
modifier tags:
%c = crc32 of the current working directory
%p = pid
%r = random number
%s = script name
%t = timestamp (seconds)
%u = timestamp (microseconds)
%H = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']
%R = $_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']
%S = session_id (from $_COOKIE if set)
%% = literal %

= Fixed bugs:
- Fixed bug #255: Call Stack Table doesn't show Location on Windows.
- Fixed bug #251: Using the source command with an invalid filename returns
unexpected result.
- Fixed bug #243: show_exception_trace="0" ignored.
- Fixed bug #241: Crash in xdebug_get_function_stack().
- Fixed bug #240: Crash with xdebug.remote_log on Windows.
- Fixed a segfault in rendering stack traces to error logs.
- Fixed a bug that prevented variable names from being recorded for remote
debug session while xdebug.collect_vars was turned off.
- Fixed xdebug_dump_superglobals() in case no super globals were
configured.

- Removed functions:
- Removed support for Memory profiling as that didn't work properly.
- Get rid of xdebug.default_enable setting and associated functions:
xdebug_disable() and xdebug_enable().

+ Added features:
- Implemented support for four different xdebug.collect_params settings for
stack traces and function traces.
- Allow to trigger profiling by the XDEBUG_PROFILE cookie.

+ DBGP:
- Correctly add namespace definitions to XML.
- Added the xdebug namespace that adds extra information to breakpoints if
available.
- Stopped the use of >error> elements for exception breakpoints, as that
violates the protocol.
