Question

Can you debug PHP scripts via the latest version of Dreamweaver and XDebug?

Hello,

 

As the subject states.  I'd like to know if the latest version of Dreamweaver supports debugging PHP script via XDebug.  I want to set break points in my code so that I can do things like debugging line by line, view the values of variables, and logic flow.  I'm using Xampp on Windows 10 Pro, as my web server.

 

TIA,

Sadly, no.  Dreamweaver is not an IDE. 

 

VS Code and the PHP Debug extension might work for you.

Sorry for the delayed response.  Thanks for the clarification.  I was able to get it to work with Netbeans, but it doesn't seem to have a good file explorer.  I'm now trying to get Eclipse to work.  Thus far, Eclispse detects when I'm initiating a debug session, but doesn't stop at breakpoints.

Try codelobster, I think the FREE version can be set up to work with XDebug
