This may
+ differ depending on your system. For Windows based systems, this is a
+ path to a file called php.exe. For Linux systems, this is a path to a
+ file simply called php. For Linux systems, this is often in
+ /usr/bin/php. To specify the PHP Interpreter, select Preferences from
+ the Window drop down menu. Open up the PHPEclipse selection and click on
+ XDebug. In the settings pane on the right that appears, enter your debug
+ port and the path to your PHP interpreter. The default debug port for
+ XDebug is 9000, but your system may be setup differently. To verify that
+ 9000 is the correct port, find a way to access your phpinfo() page and
+ check the value of xdebug.remote_port. The value of xdebug.remote_port
+ should match the debug port value.</p><div class="figure"><a name="phpeclipse.debugginglocal.xdebugsetup"></a><p class="title"><b>Figure 1.

+ configuration. This will tell Eclipse how to start the debugger for your
+ project. To do this, select 'Open Debug Dialog' from the Run drop down
+ menu. You will be presented with a list of items which you can debug.
+ Double click on the entry titled 'PHP XDebug Script'. This will create a
+ new configuration and allow you to specify the necessary options. You
+ can provide a name for your debug configuration, and then you must
+ specify the filename which should be executed for debugging purposes. In
+ this case, the filename is index.php.</p><div class="figure"><a name="phpeclipse.debugginglocal.debugconfiguration"></a><p class="title"><b>Figure 2.

+ should see the Console window at the bottom of your screen. It will tell
+ you the status of your script (terminated in this case), and the output
+ below it (Loop0 Loop0 Loop1 Loop0 Loop1 Loop2 Loop0 Loop1 Loop2 Loop3
+ Loop0 Loop1). You have now successfully created a debug configuration
+ and are ready to use the debug tools to analyze your scripts.</p></div></div><div class="navfooter"><hr><table width="100%" summary="Navigation footer"><tr><td width="40%" align="left"><a accesskey="p" href="ar03s02.html">Prev</a> </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="u" href="ar03.html">Up</a></td><td width="40%" align="right"> <a accesskey="n" href="ar03s04.html">Next</a></td></tr><tr><td width="40%" align="left" valign="top">Creating a Simple Script </td><td width="20%" align="center"><a accesskey="h" href="index.html">Home</a></td><td width="40%" align="right" valign="top"> Adding a Breakpoint</td></tr></table></div></body></html>
