I can create new Perl projects in KDevelop, and KDevelop provides automatic syntax highlighting of my .pl
files. However, I don't see a way to debug my Perl programs (e.g. add breakpoints, debug step-by-step, etc.).
Is this possible with KDevelop?
Once you have a launch configured (see Running programs), you can also run it in a debugger: Select the menu item Run → Debug Launch, or hit Alt+F9. If you are familiar with gdb, the effect is the same as starting gdb with the executable specified in the launch configuration and then saying Run .
According to this table in perlmonks, Perl debugging is not supported by KDevelop. You can use Eclipse with EPIC to debug Perl scripts.
