I have an eclipse environment set up using xdebug as the debugger. This configuration has been working fine for months. I have not changed anything. In the middle of a coding session, the debugger started terminating unexpectedly at the beginning of my app. Thought it was a coding error, but eventually I simplified the code to the point where it terminates on even the most simple line of code:
$test = 1+1;
The behavior is that the debugger runs as expected until it reaches a breakpoint. Usually the next step results in termination. "Usually", because I have found that it will work for an include statement, in which case the first line of code in the included file causes a termination.
Eclipse Helios Release 2, 20110301-1815. OSX 10.7.4. Tried it with both the internal browser and Firefox. Using MAMP as the development stack. Tried restarting Eclipse. Tried restarting Apache & MySQL. Tried restarting the Mac.
Out of ideas. Suggestions?
