Hi Joseph,
<snip You cannot debug an add-on code from a mainstream IDE such as Eclipse
because the IDE cannot find some modules (you need to add the path for NVDA core
modules manually). To debug an add-on, you may need to run NVDA with the add-on
loaded, then using logs, print statements or tones (I usually use the latter
two).
PL] That is exactly what I am doing.

Hi,
what is the error then - it should be present in the NVDA's log file.
What is your logging level in NVDA's General Settings? If it's something less
than debug - that should explain why you don't see your debug messages, or the
execution doesn't get to them at all.
Indeed, there is a python debugger - pdb, but I've never used it.
I never heard of pyScripter - is it accessible? If you're not satisfied with it
- try Eclipse with the pydev extention, though have in mind that to navigate in
it you would need to familiarize yourself with its keyboard shortcuts first.
However, using a simple editor like Notepad++ and logging stuff should be
enough - that's what most people here do.
Best wishes,
Zahari

Hi Zahari,----------------------------------------------------------------
I did what the guide said. The file is being compiled and I get an error if
there is a compiler error with the file.
Anyhow, I'll continue troubleshooting.

Hi,
probably your script is not loaded at all. Look at NVDA's Developer guide how
you should declare a global plugin and check your code again:

Hi all,----------------------------------------------------------------
I am trying to write a basic global plugin. How do I debug it? Yes, I
can add log statements and send output to nvda's log.. However, in my
current code, that too is failing without an error. Is there a way
for me to load the script into an IDE like pyScripter and debug?
