Next Page flakiness

Posted by cheesegrits on 2008-01-03 16:16

I've been meaning to mention this for a while ...

When PHP debugging, sometimes the "...Next Page..." control on long Objects or Arrays in the debug variable list doesn't work. I can't seem to find any pattern to the failure mode. Mostly it works, sometimes it doesn't. When it doesn't, you can double click "...Next Page..." till the cows come home, nothing happens.

Sometimes I can work round this by copying the object into the Watch list and examining it there, but this only works about 50% of the time.

As a guesstimate, I'd say this happens around 10% of the time I go to view a Next Page. So it's not a huge deal, but irritating when it does happen, especially if the "copy to Watch" trick doesn't work.

I realize this is a tough one to track down without a repeatable test case, so I'll continue trying to establish any common denominators, and update this thread if I find any.

Up to y'all whether you want to submit a bug report on this or not.

You might want to check if there are exceptions being generated when you click on the "Next Page" and then log the details and repro instructions in a new Komodo bug.

The log file locations are discussed here:
