Question

Use import ipdb; ipdb.set_trace() to insert breakpoint. Color is fine when first hit the breakpoint, but it shows color code instead of true color when hit the BP the second time (by press c) and so on.

    ←[1;32m     72 ←[1;33m        ←[1;32mimport←[0m ←[0mipdb←[0m←[1;33m;←[0m ←[0mipdb←[0m←[1;33m.←[0m←[0mset_trace←[0m←[1;33m(←[0m←[1;33m)←[0m  ←[1;31m# XXX BREAKPO
    INT←[0m←[1;33m←[0m←[0m

It is in windows 7, python 2.7 and 2.6 have the same issue. I think one work around method is using nocolor scheme (how to get nocolor scheme?) And how to fix this issue with color scheme available? Thanks!

Was it helpful?

Solution

It is a known issue when using ipdb for Windows: https://github.com/gotcha/ipdb/issues/31

Apparently, this ticket is still open.

There is a quickfix from a guy that solves the problem:

OK ... I commented out line ipdb/main.py:43 which sets io.stdout and sys.stdout. Then I added a "pass" statement.

This now seems to work for me on windows.
