When debugging Drupal, I often stick dpm($some_array, "my array"); calls to see what the value of $some_array is. This fails spectacularly if the code I'm debugging is run very late in the request after drupal_get_messages() has already been called. (Eg most hook_preprocess_THEMEHOOK functions).

In that case, I've found it useful to add these helper functions somewhere (any enabled custom module, or even index.php), use them instead of dpm. They'll serialize objects to apache's error_log (wherever that is), which you can track by opening a terminal tab and running:

tail -f /var/log/apache2/error.log | tr '%' "\n"

Je veux seulement développer des logiciels propriétaires car cela m'est égal si la toile mondiale est ruinée.

Je veux toujours rester fidèle à Linux bien qu'on me force la main à développer en Windows.

À mes yeux, un bon développeur ne gaspille pas de temps pour rédiger des guides pratiques ou créer les essais d'un programme pourvu qu'on utilise un système pour gérer toutes les versions des ensembles de données.

Je cherche un logiciel pour acquérir la connaissance du français de crainte que je sois dénoncé comme espion russe.

Je peux me croiser les bras pendant que mes créations se promeuvent elles-mêmes.
