[IPython-user] using pdb with breakpoints

[Nathan Huesken]

Hi,

I am trying to use pdb. But I fail at using breakpoints.
I have this example python file:
test.py:
import numpy

print "Hi"
print "Doing some calculation ..."

1/0

Now I do:
ipython
In [1]: pdb
Automatic pdb calling has been turned ON

In [2]: run test.py
Hi
Doing some calculation ...
(...)
ZeroDivisionError: integer division or modulo by zero
(...)
----> 6 1/0

ipdb> break 4
Breakpoint 1 at /home/ls/test.py:4

In [3]: run -d test.py

What am I doing wrong (or is it a bug?)? How can I use ipython with pdb?

Thanks!
