lordrt Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Hi everyone, am looking for a php debugging software (freeware as far as possible) which would help me in finding errors etc in my php scripts/files. Anyone have an idea Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizmola Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Check out xdebug. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
resting Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 http://www.aptana.com/ studio is a free php ide with debugger. Eclipse ide is free too. but these 2 are imo slow to load. phpED is fast but comes with a cost. phpDesigner looks nice but is slow too.

However, none of these provide debugging without XDebug installed in PHP. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lordrt Posted October 13, 2009 Author Share Posted October 13, 2009 thx gizmola and resting, will have a look at them but I think will go for Xdebug Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gizmola Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 thanks gizmola and resting, will have a look at them but I think will go for Xdebug I think the point is, Xdebug facilitates debugging. There are some things that XDebug provides that don't require a client, but to get what I think you want, which is traditional IDE style debugging, you'll also need an IDE that can make use of the XDebug api. I'm guessing that most if not all the editors that people have brought up, will work with XDebug, once properly configured. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mchl Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 Add NetBeans to the 'XDebug enabled IDEs' list. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
