gdb_probe

You love ipdb.set_trace() in python or binding.pry in ruby? You are sad that rust doesn't ofer the same comfort? gdbprobe_ is here to safe the day! With a simple call, it suspends the current process, spawns a new terminal and attaches gdb.

How to use

add "gdb_probe="0.1" to your Cargo.toml

```rust extern crate gdbprobe; use gdbprobe::gdb_probe;

fn main() { println!("Hello, world!"); let x = 3+4; gdb_probe(); //spawns a new terminal (urxvt) with gdb attached at this position. } ```

Known Caveats

Warning If the target process dies before the debugger can attach, sometimes init is debugged instead. In that case forcefully terminating the debugger causes a reboot.

Depends on urxvt as a terminal.
