in reply to Monitor file require/use
nice script, seems useful (untested so far).
For my current problem, I could use a modifikation, that has the same function, but watches a cgi-script.
As this is done by request of an external browser and executed by the local apache server,
do you think, that your script would serve as a wrapper, and print out loaded files
*and* variables and values being exchanged between them?
That all together would be *very* helpful for both developing and debugging purposes!

What do you mean "print out loaded files
*and* variables and values being exchanged between them"? What variables? How do your required or used files exchange values with variables?
This script uses the debugger interface. If you want to monitor a variable, you can tie it (see perltie and Tie::Scalar or Tie::Array or Tie::Hash). I'm not sure what problem you're trying to solve.
If you just want to watch a particular CGI, just use a remote debugger like Devel::ptkdb or ActiveState's debugger. | [reply] [Watch: Dir/Any] |

What I am dreaming of ;-) is an omnipotent debuggertool.
As I only know perl -d so far, I can't imagine a convenient
way of debugging a cgi-script with multifunctions in depth.
So I would appreciate a tool telling me that the
script.pl is currently calling module.pm passing
variable with value to it.
The problem is, that the script.pl is invoked by
Apache by browserrequest, so how can you get into that???
