Jython Macro debug mode (how to set options!)
Submitted by WGW on Tuesday, 30 March, 2004 - 04:43
I have been trying to write jython macros. One thing I have not understood properly is whether there is a macro debug mode for jython macros. I can't seem to find any documentation on it. I did find the options file, with the following entry.

options.jython.python.verbose.values=debug comment message warning error


But I'm not sure what to do with it (I'm assuming I should put it in the properties file.)

Should I put it in as is? Will it allow macro debugging?

Many questions!

For debugging Jython macros, I've had success using either "Macros.message(view,'xxx')" or "print >> sys.stderr, 'xxx'". You could also use jEdit's log (see Log.log). Another useful thing is to try doing things in the JythonInterpreter console -- once you get something to work there, copy it into the macro.

Thanks, that will help; I will give your suggestions a try. I haven't tried (foolishly) the interpreter window because I wasn't sure how the variables like text and line would work. I suppose it is clever enough to know what window I want the code to apply to.

More experimenting!

Thanks again.
