Hi Koha developers, I have been talking with John and Paul at BibLibre for some months now about a correct way to add Data::Dumper, Smart::Comments, insert::your::favorite::debugger stuff to the Koha perl files *once and for all* After a few false starts and some googling - this is the method I have used and tested... use C4::Debug; use if $debug, 'Data::Dumper' ; use if $debug, 'Smart::Comments' ; # use if $debug, 'YAML::Dumper; # etc.... It's short, sweet and works a treat ;) I currently waste much time every day adding/removing 'use Data::Dumper/use Smart::Comments' from my files when debugging and then committing patches to koha.org Can we agree to add this code (or something similar) to most *.pm and *.pl files? Is there a better way than this? Is this a bad way? Any improvements or corrections i don't realize? What do other developers do to get around this laborious issue? FYI: this small fix (should it be accepted), will resolve one of my biggest pet-annoyances of the Koha project! Cheers, Mason.
