Why is iPdb not displaying STOUT after my input?
- by BryanWheelock
I can't figure out why ipdb is not displaying stout properly.
I'm trying to debug why a test is failing and so I attempt to use ipdb debugger.
For some reason my Input seems to be accepted, but the STOUT is not displayed until I (c)ontinue.
Is this something broken in ipdb?
It makes it very difficult to debug a program.
Below is an example ipdb session, notice how I attempt to display the values of the attributes with:
user.is_authenticated()
user_profile.reputation
user.is_superuser
The results are not displayed until 'begin captured stdout '

Here is the actual test I'm trying to run:
def can_retag_questions(user):
"""Determines if a User can retag Questions."""
user_profile = user.get_profile()
import ipdb; ipdb.set_trace()
return user.is_authenticated() and (
RETAG_OTHER_QUESTIONS <= user_profile.reputation < EDIT_OTHER_POSTS or
user.is_superuser)
I've also tried to use pdb, but that doesn't display anything. I see my test progress .... , and then nothing and not responsive to keyboard input.
Is this a problem with readline?
