When debugging my Python code, I run a script through ipdb from the commandline, and set a number of breakpoints. Then I make some changes in one or more modules, and rerun. However, if I simply use run modules do not get reloaded. To make sure they do, I can exist and restart Python completely, but then I need to reset all breakpoints, which is tedious if I have many and if done over and over again.
Is there a way to save breakpoint to a file in (i)pdb, so that after small changes that do not change line numbers, I can dump my breakpoints, restart Python + pdb, and reload my breakpoints? The equivalent to Matlabs X = dbstatus
, saving/loading X
, and setting dbstop(X)
.
