Debug Add-On

[eluser]shay![/eluser]
Hi everyone,

Does anyone know of a Debug class/add-on for dumping variables for CodeIgniter? Zend Framework has a similar functionality with Zend_Debug. (http://framework.zend.com/manual/en/zend.debug.html)

I could write my own but I'd rather use one everyone else is using!

Cheers!

Shay

I'm sure such a thing exists, but I usually just add a [url="http://uk2.php.net/oop5.magic"]__toString()[/url] method, and either echo that, or pass it to log_message().

there is a profiler in output class add this to controller

$this->output->enable_profiler(TRUE);

TheFuzzy0ne, Opel. Thank you for your reply.

$this->output->enable_profiler(TRUE) is very useful thank you.

I think I'll write my own add-on that will enable me to write

$this->showvars($var, 'some flag');

to produce debug information on a specific variable at a specific point in the code. I'll upload it when I'm done with it!

Thanks guys!

I made that debug add-on:

Put it in your autoloader / $this->load and you'll be able to spit out messages similar to the profiler at will!

Usage is:

$this->debug->dump($var, $tag, $die);

You can create your own alias if you want!
