Here, all you do is import pydb (if that hasn't been done
already), and call pydb.pm() or pydb.post_mortem if you
have a specific traceback object you want to use.
To make this more concrete we will give an example. We have the
following text mymodule.py
def test():
print spam
Now here's a sample session
>>> import mymodule
>>> mymodule.test()
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in ?
File "mymodule.py", line 2, in test
print spam
NameError: global name 'spam' is not defined
>>> import pydb
>>> pydb.pm()
(/home/src/external-cvs/pydb/test/mymodule.py:2): test
(Pydb) where
-> 0 test() called from file '/tmp/mymodule.py' at line 2
## 1 in file '<stdin>' at line 1
(Pydb) list
1 def test():
2 -> print spam
[EOF]
(Pydb) quit
>>>
At present if you are using ipython, that captures the
exception and sys.last_traceback will not be defined.
If you have a traceback stored say in variable t, instead of
pydb.pm() above, use pydb.post_mortem(t).
