* Package name : pydevd Version : 1.6.1 Upstream Author : Fabio Zadrozny * URL : https://github.com/fabioz/PyDev.Debugger/ * License : EPL Programming Lang: Python Description : Sources for the debugger used in PyDev, PyCharm and VSCode Python In general, the debugger backend should NOT be installed separately if you're using an IDE which already bundles it (such as PyDev or PyCharm). It is however available in PyPi so that it can be installed for doing remote debugging with pip -- so, when debugging a process which runs in another machine, it's possible to pip install pydevd and in the code use pydevd.settrace(host='10.1.1.1') to connect the debugger backend to the debugger UI running in the IDE (whereas previously the sources had to be manually copied from the IDE installation). -- Its useful for remote debugging. I plan to maintain it within DPMT.
