Debugging include_once

[MarcF]

I've recently purchased PHP Tools for VS 2013.

If I hit an error on a php script which has been included as follows:

Code: Select all

include_once "plugin-globals.php";

I get a debug error on the include_once line. The exception contains no further information that allows me to determine where in "plugin-globals.php" the exception has come from. This could become something of a show stopper for larger php files.

Any advice?

Hi,

What is the name of the exception? If it's directly on include_once statement it's most likely something that prevents from running the script at all... e.g parse error. You'd see error of this kind in error list when you open the file.

[MarcF]

yes, it is a parse error. I was expecting some sort of line number to the parse error?

Unfortunately xdebug doesn't provide us with this kind of information during runtime. But if you open the file and click on the error from error list pane it should take you to the line. Does it?
