How to generate debug code ?

[fungiboletus]

It's not documented anywhere but it looks like a few debug annotations exist :

@debug "true"
@debug_fifo "true"
@debug_message_send ".*"
@debug_message_receive ".*"

I did put them in my configuration, but still no debug code is generated. Is there something more to do ?

As for now, I think we can consider debugging broken...

We need to revise the way we do debugging, possibly through a ThingML tool

[fungiboletus]

Alright. I patched the JSThingImplCompiler.java : if (debugProfile.isActive() || AnnotatedElementHelper.hasAnnotation(ctx.getCurrentConfiguration(), "debug")) {} Now it generates the code, which is good enough for me so you can take your time thinking about the new debugger.

Note that we now have a tool to instrument ThingML with logs (does not yet work for C, though). I can try do write some documentation about it.

Actually, the stuff that fungiboletus is deveopping could be a really good test / showcase for the tool you have made Brice and it runs in the browser.

Cool :-) I'll make a small tutorial, then

OK, this README.MD should get you started.

Note that the readme does not explain how to use the dashboard made by @nicolasferry :-) just to get raw logs out of your Thingml programs
