python-mode problems in emacs (pdb)

python-mode problems in emacs (pdb)

[Chris Fonnesbeck]

I was disappointed to see that pdb still does not work in emacs. When
I run a fille that calls pdb.set_trace(), I get the following:

> /System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/python2.3/pdb.py(992)set_trace()->None
-> Pdb().set_trace()
(Pdb) 
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 148, in ?
  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/python2.3/pdb.py",
line 992, in set_trace
    Pdb().set_trace()
  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/python2.3/bdb.py",
line 52, in trace_dispatch
    return self.dispatch_return(frame, arg)
  File "/System/Library/Frameworks/Python.framework/Versions/2.3/lib/python2.3/bdb.py",
line 80, in dispatch_return
    if self.quitting: raise BdbQuit
bdb.BdbQuit

This is the same message that I got about a year ago, and was unable
to find a solution. Anyone know of a fix for this?

Thanks,

What makes you think this is an Emacs problem? (I assume that you believe it
to be an Emacs problem since you are posting here instead of
comp.lang.python - your statement is not exactly definitive :-))

pdb.set_trace() works fine for me in my Emacs (21.3.1 on Windoze) sessions.

Well, I assumed it was a python-mode.el problem. I am running it on
OSX, and emacs is still a bit embryonic on that platform, which I why
I am assuming emacs is the culprit. I dont care whodunnit, I just want
to fix it.
