Dear Squeakers,
I was just asking myself, why we cannot debug process forking like this:
0. In the Debugger: [ self doSomething ] "--> next send" fork. nextStatement.
1. Press the Through button.
2. The debugger stops at the next step after the send of #fork: [ self
doSomething ] fork. "-->" nextStatement.
3. A second full debugger opens on the new (and now suspended)
process: [ self "-->" doSomething ] fork. nextStatement.
Do you see any drawbacks or huge implementation challenges or
blockers? Or would it be "only" a matter of somebody finding the time
and will to implement such a feature?
Kind regards,
Jakob
