tcl debugging with dltk [message #20867]

hi,

i happened across the DLTK plugins a few days ago and am thrilled at the
prospect of tcl debugging support in eclipse. i downloaded the 0.9.2
version of DLTK and am trying to configure tcl debugging. i couldnt find
any documentation on how to do this, but based on this post -
http://dev.eclipse.org/mhonarc/lists/dltk-dev/msg00035.html - gathered
that i need to install a tcl debugging engine separately from the DLTK
install in order to debug a tcl app. is that correct?

i downloaded a 21 day trial of ActiveStates Tcl Dev Kit but dont see a
file named dbgp_tcldebug.exe, which the aforementioned post identified as
the debugger to use with DLTK. selecting C:\TclDevKit\bin\tcldebugger.exe
didnt work.

which tcl debugger engines has DLTK been tested with, and what are the
associated debugging engines to use with DLTK? is there any documentation
i missed on how to set this up?

thanks.

-mike

thanks, that worked great. i did notice that with that debugger i'm not
able to introspect lists or arrays in the Variables view. is that a
limitation of the debugger or the DLTK plugins?

Arrays and list are supported.
Could you please create a bug report with screenshot in Eclipse bug tracker for DLTK project.

Best regards,

submitted https://bugs.eclipse.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=222564, thanks. i
found it wasn't a general list/array problem, any variable name beginning
with 'args' will not display in the Variables view.
