New submission from Brian Curtin <br...@python.org>: Patch to add -a/--attach option to Lib/test/regrtest.py to pause before beginning test runs. This would allow a user to attach Visual Studio or some other debugger. Very simply, this option just blocks waiting for a keystroke during argument parsing - once you're ready, hit any key.
My use case is with Visual Studio, where I've wanted to debug C code used by tests and would prefer to attach to an external command prompt, rather than have to initiate the test from within VS. ---------- assignee: brian.curtin components: Tests files: attach.diff keywords: patch messages: 133559 nosy: brian.curtin priority: normal severity: normal stage: patch review status: open title: Add option to pause regrtest to attach a debugger type: feature request versions: Python 3.3 Added file: http://bugs.python.org/file21625/attach.diff _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue11832> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
