@enter debugging command doesn't seem to do anything

New to Julia
1

I’m a Julia newbie, am learning the environment. I’ve been trying for a couple of days to get debugging working in JuliaPro. I’ve tried 1.0.1.1 and 1.0.2.1.

I see on JunoLab.org that Debugger integration is supposed to be built in. Indeed, when I hit F10 or F11, I get a popup to use “@enter”, and when I do “?@enter” I see usage.

But when I try to use @enter, nothing happens. The REPL just returns immediately, doing nothing. I first tried debugging “@enter MyFunc(MyArgs)”; when that didn’t work I tried the simple example I saw in some doc somewhere “@enter 1+1”, or “@enter println(“Hello”)”. The results are no different from typing “#”.

What do I need to do to get @enter to work? I’ve also tried things like “using Gallium”, which requires that I add Gallium, but adding Gallium fails with an error.

I feel like I must be missing something obvious.

I am enthusiastic about Julia and am evaluating it for adoption by our department of engineers, but cannot recommend it to them without the ability to debug programs. Any tips?

Thanks,
Brad

Maybe, JuliaPro (Juno) hasn’t supported debugging with julia v1.0 yet…

You can directly use ASTInterpreter2#master and DebuggerFramwork2#master which support Julia v1.0.
You may want to look at the comment by @zxj5470 (how to install) of this thread and the usage.

Another option is Rebugger. If you’re doing command-line debugging, you may find it to be a nicer interface. But there’s no IDE solution yet.
