Debugger information...

archive
archive over 17 years ago

Hello,
just a curiosity. When I use the skill debugger environment, I usually call the function Status.
In the ciw are displayed the following lines:

Traced variables   (x y)
Traced properties  nil
Breakpoints        (bottom middle)
Counted functions  nil

What does the "Counted functions" item represents? It seems to be always nil. The doc says nothing.
Do you have any idea on what it could mean?

Regards,

Giuseppe

    Giuseppe,

    This is related to the:

    count(funcName)

    function - what this does is starts counting the calls to the named function. Counted functions will list the names of any counted functions.

    When you do:

    uncount(funcName)

    it will report the number of times that function was called.

    See the documentation /doc/skdevref/skdevref.pdf for more details on count and uncount.

    Andrew.
    Andrew.
