Using PDT 2.2.0 ( helios win32 version).
XDebug version 2.1

Hi All.

I've hit a problem with PDT and XDebug when debugging files on a remote server. I'm using the Firefox XDebug extension to initiate debugging.

The debug perspective opens correctly for the php script, but an error occurs when I try and step into the code. (This error is reproduced from the Eclipse error log below.) I then lose all the information in the variables panel. Sometimes this is completely blank, other times the variable names are there but the values are given as "<Uninitialized>".

I can't see any problems in the XDebug log.

Has anyone seen this bug before or know what causes it or how to get around it.


Thanks,

Max

Your build ID indicates you are using PDT 2.1, not PDT 2.2. This problem
only occurs when using xdebug 2.1 and PDT 2.1. I think it should be
fixed in PDT 2.1.2 and PDT 2.2 releases

Well spotted! How on earth did I manage to re-install the wrong version and not notice. If the pdt download files actually had a version number instead of just a code word that would make life less erorr prone.

I don't get the same error when actually using PDT 2.2.0. If I double check in the "Help->About", this is called Helios 20100617-1415. So, some progress, hopefully I can get these versions working well enough.

Many thanks,

Max
