script.module.pydevd
==================

Kodi support for PyDev debugging in PyCharm

How to use:
-----------

 * Add script.module.pydevd as a requirement to the module under test:

    ```xml
    <!-- addon.xml -->
    <addon id="your.addon">
        <requires>
            <import addon="script.module.pydevd" version="4.4.0"/>
        </requires>
    </addon>
    ```
 * Start the debug server in Eclipse.

    If the debug server is not running when you call settrace then you'll encounter:

    ```python
    Error Type: <class 'socket.error'>
    Error Contents: [Errno 111] Connection refused
    ```
    
 * Then in the code under test:

    ```python
    import pydevd
    pydevd.settrace(stdoutToServer=True, stderrToServer=True)
    ```
 * Use Eclipse debug perspective to move through code.

See http://pydev.org/ for details.

Known Issues:
-------------

When attempting to exit or shutdown, Kodi will often freeze after a debug session
has been initiated.

Images in Kodi skins often fail to render during a debug session. If you want to
verify that images are being rendered then do not run under a pydev debug session.
