Description paolosca 2011-12-05 19:10:58 UTC

We use a several external libraries in our projects and it would be nice to exclude them from the debugging process.

In example we generate PDF reports using tcpdf, and most line are like the following:

$pdf->Cell($w[1], 7, $data, "B", 0, "C", 0);

When I do debugging step by step, pretty much every line tcpdf.php is opened and I have to click step out to go back to my code. This makes the debugging process very annoying.

It would be nice if there was an option to exclude files, in example files marked as ignored from debugging should auto step out whenever the debugger enters them.

It doesn't need to be an option of the file, perhaps it would be enough a new button in the debugger toolbar called "exclude file", when pressed it will step out and keep stepping out automatically from the same file for the duration of the debug session. 

Thanks,

Paolo.
