In eclipse (and several other IDE's as well) there is an option to turn on the breakpoint only after a certain number of hits. In Python's pdb
there is a hit count for breakpoints and there is the condition
command. How do I connect them?
It's easy to set a breakpoint in Python code to i.e. inspect the contents of variables at a given line. Add import pdb; pdb. set_trace() at the corresponding line in the Python code and execute it. The execution will stop at the breakpoint.
Python Quick Tip: Debugger and breakpoint()You can insert a breakpoint with the breakpoint() function at any position in your code . This is new in Python 3.7, and is equivalent to the older import pdb; pdb. set_trace() command.
Whenever you want to leave the pdb console, type the command quit or exit . If you would like to explicitly restart a program at any place within the program, you can do so with the command run .
Starting Python Debugger To start debugging within the program just insert import pdb, pdb. set_trace() commands. Run your script normally and execution will stop where we have introduced a breakpoint. So basically we are hard coding a breakpoint on a line below where we call set_trace().
I found the answer. It's pretty easy actually, there's a command called ignore
let's say you want to break at breakpoint in line 9 after 1000 hits:
b 9
Output: Breakpoint 2 at ...
ignore 1 1000
Output: Will ignore next 1000 crossings of breakpoint 1.
