WP-dBug
A colleague at work found dBug, a sweet PHP class for creating nice, clean debug output and implemented it into our framework. While debugging a different WordPress plugin, I realized how nice it would be to have similar output in WordPress. Thanks to some planned system downtime during a major datacenter move where I work, I finally had a chance to create a plugin to implement the dBug class. It’s basically a wrapper for the original class–all the credit should and does go to Kwaku Otchere for creating what is (in my opinion) the nicest-looking debug output I’ve ever seen. It’s simple as heck to use the plugin: just install it, activate, and call it like this:
[cc lang="php"]
function fill_my_screen_with_stuffs (){
global $wpdb;
wp_dbug( $wpdb );
wp_die( ‘Did you know WP 3.0 has a cool new wp_die() function?’ );
}
[/cc]
As a side note, you can use dBug for whatever code you want–just include the single PHP file and use it according to the author’s instructions.
