NAME

ebug_client - Debugger server for remote debugging Perl script

VERSION

version 0.64

SYNOPSIS

ebug_server [-keepio][-port port] -- script args...

DESCRIPTION

ebug_server is an debugger server for remote debugging Perl script, using ebug_client.

When invoked, it will show you how to invoke ebug_client.

EXAMPLE

# Run hello.pl and wait for "ebug_client" to attach
$ ebug_server -- hello.pl

# Same as above, but keep I/O happen on server side
$ ebug_server -keepio -- hello.pl

NOTE

You can't specify secret key - it must be generated automatically. Also, you can't specify port below 3141.

Since Devel::ebug::Backend listens to "localhost" socket, you will need to relay I/O using tool like socat for true remote debugging.
