[Ruby] [ANN] RTInspect

[Daevid Vincent]

Just thought you all might find this interesting. It's done by a guy named
Brad that Evan and I work with. He's one smart cookie, and he gave us a
formal live demo of it today and it was quite impressive...

This is a class that will enable remote access capabilities in a running
Ruby process, exposing the ability to enable breakpoints, walk code (e.g.
step/next/continue), inspect variables, modify codepaths, and many other
debugging actions.

The first draft of the Runtime Inspection and Debugging Thread is available.
This pass is very close to fully functional and allows one to effectively
telnet into a running Ruby process to inspect and monitor progress. Check
out the README for details and examples of usage. Looking for comments on
usefulness and/or approach as well as potential feature requests.
