We have a few tickets regarding or related to the debugger:

  • ticket:506 Move debugger code into the front end
  • ticket:622 Allow runtime and debugger inspection of the call stack
  • ticket:623 Different debuggers (e.g., console style, similar to gdb)

I've started a new branch (debugger) to work on this, and so far, I've got the ability to fetch the call stack. So far, it lists the routine name, file name and line number for each level of the call stack. It will probably grow to include more low level detail that will be required for other euphoria coded debuggers.

The goal is to make the debugger more open so that users can build their own debuggers (GUIs, etc). A lot of how exactly these things will work is still up in the air.
