Setting Breakpoints to Read Code

Hi all,
I am new to Squeak and its debugging interface. I am trying to get a handle
on Seaside by setting breakpoints on the methods in the example apps.

Is there a way to bulk set breakpoints for all classes and methods in the
Seaside package(or any other package) ? I would like to see exactly what
code is being executed at any given time. Is there an easier way?

Thanks...
Deech

Aditya,

You can put this inside any method:

self halt. "Will show up a stack trace"

Thanks for your input. However, I am trying to get handle on Seaside with
lots of methods and a confusing (at least for me since I have no experience
with web frameworks) control flow. I would like to run one of the examples
and see what method is being interpreted at each step. Is there a way I can
add breakpoints to all the methods in a certain package?

Thanks...
Aditya

you just need one breakpoint at top level and with the debugger you
can step into every method you find interesting. If you want to follow
the iterations of a loop you need the "trough" button.

If you want static control flow, get the Tracing Messages Browser from
SqueakMap. Using senders and implementors there will give you an
indented list of the calls.

I guess your original wish would be doable as Squeak is very good in
meta programming but imho you'll only clutter up your screen with
debuggers.

I have no knowledge about Seaside myself, so I can't tell you where to
put the top level breakpoint.

If my suggestions prove impractical (Seaside might use many parallel
processes) try asking again with a new subject.

And I don't think the inner workings of seaside belong to "the most
basic questions about Squeak", so maybe try Squeak-dev or the seaside
mailing list.
