[Dltk-dev] Re: Tcl with DLTK

Hi Robbert,

DLTK Tcl implementation not support interactive consoles during debug sessions.
DBGp protocol which we use for debug don't directly allow consoles support.
We think about extending of protocol to allow consoles, but this work are not started.

Best regards,
Andrei Sobolev.

Hi,

please allow me to ask something regarding Tcl Console handling in
debug sessions.

I have extensively performed experiments with the 1 april version of
DLTK with Tcl. For the sake of getting more handling knowledgd I also
viewed the screencast available on the DLTK home page.

While debugging, A "debug console" exists. One can not send any input
here to the application running.
One can open a separate interactive console window, but apparently this
one runs in an own interpreter without connection to the application
running in debug mode.

I tried several debug dialog options (under the tab "common"), but no
option seems to perform the desired result.

When console input can be sent to the running app, I also could use the
"paste to Console" context command to update procs into the running
application.

Thanks for any hint,
Rob
