python调试器pdb

C/C++ 语言拥有调试工具gdb，同样对于高级语言Python，也有自己的调试利器pdb。

下面简单结合例子介绍pdb

有如下的python文件：example.py

#!/usr/bin/python#-*- coding:utf-8 -*-import jsondef main():    with open("/root/test/1.json") as f:        content = f.read()    print "type(content):%s, content:%s" % (type(content), content)    print type(json.loads(content))    print json.loads(content）if __name__ == "__main__":    a = 1    b = 2    c = 3    d = 4    main()    e = 5

如果想要进行调试，pdb提供了两种手段：

（1）执行 python -m pdb example.py从代码入口处进入调试

[root@hzclov51 test]# cp file_operate.py example.py[root@hzclov51 test]# python -m pdb example.py > /root/test/example.py(4)<module>()-> import json(Pdb) q

（2）在需要调试的代码处添加如下语句设置断点：

         import pdb

         pdb.set_trace()

然后执行 python example.py 将直接运行代码至断点处

#!/usr/bin/python#-*- coding:utf-8 -*-import jsondef main():    with open("/root/test/1.json") as f:        content = f.read()    print "type(content):%s, content:%s" % (type(content), content)    print type(json.loads(content))    print json.loads(content)if __name__ == "__main__":    a = 1    b = 2    import pdb    pdb.set_trace()    c = 3    d = 4    main()    e = 5

[root@hzclov51 test]# python example.py > /root/test/example.py(17)<module>()-> c = 3(Pdb) 

一般，第二种方法为推荐用法。

pdb的常用命令和gdb基本相同

help（h）帮助break（b）设置断点（指定行或者函数设置）next（n）往下执行一行（如果是函数不进入函数内部）continue（c）继续执行直到下一个断点处step（s）单步调试（一句句执行，遇到函数进入函数内部执行）return（r）返回函数调用处list（l）列出代码（标识出当前停止的代码处）print（p）打印变量exit（q）退出pdb
