# The www/p5-Apache-DB port

## p5-Apache-DB-0.14p2 – interactive debugger for modperl

## Description

    Apache::DB establishes the needed hooks to debug mod_perl code interactively.
    In order to use it,

    - add the following code to httpd.conf, after loading mod_perl.so

    <IfDefine PERLDB>

    <Perl>
      use Apache::DB ();
      Apache::DB->init;
    </Perl>

    <Location />
      PerlFixupHandler Apache::DB
    </Location>

    </IfDefine>

    - start apache for a debugging session using a line like:
    httpd -X -DPERLDB -u

    Then any perl request will be intercepted by the debugger.
    Modules such as HTML::Mason have further hooks to get into the debugger
    at interesting points.

    This port also provides some sample configuration code that can
    start up the debugger or the profiler in a similar way
    (${PREFIX}/share/Apache/DB/perldb.conf)
