The basic output lists all the different functions, methods, and `included`/`required` files.

- **Invocation Count:** The number of times the function has been called

- **Total Self Cost:** The total time it took to execute the raw php in this function (time taken to execute your other custom functions is excluded.)

- **Total Inclusive Cost:** Total time, including any other functions called (PHP internal, or your functions)

- **What the different colours mean?**
 - **Blue** are PHP internal functions
 - **Green** are your class methods
 - **Orange** are procedural functions
 - **Grey** is time taken to `include`, or `require` .php files.

- **What the coloured bar means?** Graphical display of breakdown of time for each type as above. 

- For the last ones, I assume you&#39;ve clicked the arrow to open a particular function?

  - **Calls:** The functions/methods called in executing this function

  - **Total Call Cost:** The total time executing this function, when called from the parent function

  - **Count:** Number of times the parent calls the child.

I have inherited some code that will eventually be part of an API call. Based on the existing code, the call is a post to retrieve JSON code with an access_token. While this would normally be simple and like every other API out there, this code requires that there be a customized httpheader field for the client secret. 

I was able to make this work in Objective C with URLRequest, etc. but now that I am creating the call for a web component, I have been roadblocked. 

I am using a pretty standard jquery post
     
            $.post(&#39;https://url.com&#39;, 
            {access_token:&#39;XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX&#39;,
             function(data){
               console.info(data);
             }, &#39;json&#39;);

With a HTTP-EQUIV in the header. But the post never retrieves data and the server itself doesn&#39;t recognized that any call was made (even an incomplete one).

I may have to scrap this code and start over, but if anyone has encountered this problem before, please offer any insight.

I have setup xdebug and webgrind and I have generated a profile so I can start improving the speed of my code execution. I have displayed the profile in webgrind but I haven&#39;t got a clue what any of it means. All the googling I have done doesn&#39;t really explain any of it either.

Could someone please explain the basics of reading a webgrind report:

What the different colours mean

&lt;!-- End of automatically inserted text --&gt;

I&#39;m working on a script that creates a JSON file. Right now I&#39;m just using `json_encode` (PHP 5.2.x) to encode an array into JSON output. Then I print the returned value to a file and save it. Problem is that the client wants to be able to open these JSON files for readability, so I&#39;d like to add line breaks in and &quot;pretty print&quot; the JSON output. Any ideas on how to do this? My only other alternative that I can see is to not use `json_encode` at all and just write the file contents manually and add in my own line breaks for each line.

Here&#39;s what I get:

    {&quot;product_name&quot;:&quot;prod1&quot;,&quot;val1&quot;:1,&quot;val2&quot;:8}

Here&#39;s what I want:

    {
      &quot;product_name&quot;:&quot;prod1&quot;,
      &quot;val1&quot;:1,
      &quot;val2&quot;:8
    }

I suppose I could also just replace every comma with a command followed by a \n, and same for the brackets... Thoughts?

Just wondering if there is something like .= for adding text to the beginning of a string, e.g.:

    $foo =. &#39;bar&#39;;

which doesn&#39;t work.

Edit: example was originally `$foo =. $bar;` which can be achieved with `$bar .= $foo;`

Any equivalent to .= for adding to beginning of string in PHP?

I&#39;m having this weird problem. All my settings used to work OK, until I updated my version of PHP. I use macports and have the php5 and php5-xdebug ports installed. 

xdebug is working, but it is stopping on the first line of my script even though I have the option disabled in PhpStorm. There is no breakpoint there, and breakpoints in other parts of the code are working OK. 

If it helps, here is the xdebug portion of phpinfo (in two parts);

I would like to know if some word is present in the URL.

For example, if word car is in the URL, like www.domain.com/car/ or www.domain.com/car/audi/ it would echo &#39;car is exist&#39; and if there&#39;s nothing it would echo &#39;no cars&#39;.

I have a HotSpot JVM heap dump that I would like to analyze. The VM ran with `-Xmx31g`, and the heap dump file is 48 GB large.

* I won&#39;t even try `jhat`, as it requires about five times the heap memory (that would be 240 GB in my case) and is awfully slow.
* Eclipse MAT crashes with an `ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException` after analyzing the heap dump for several hours.

What other tools are available for that task? A suite of command line tools would be best, consisting of one program that transforms the heap dump into efficient data structures for analysis, combined with several other tools that work on the pre-structured data.

I have an xdebug profile on a php script that I parsed with kcachegrind. Here is a screenshot showing that the most time spent inside any given function was spent inside `&lt;cycle 1&gt;` and the top &#39;Callers&#39; were made from &#39;include&#39; and &#39;include_once&#39; in index.php.

I am using cProfile on a module named bot4CA.py so in the console I type: 

    python -m cProfile -o thing.txt bot4CA.py


After the module runs and exits, it creates a file named thing.txt and when I open it, there is some information there, and the rest is a jumble of characters instead of a neatly organized file of data which is what I want. Does any one know how to use cProfile and end up with neatly organized table of data like when using it normally on command line, except in a file?
Here&#39;s an example of some of the data in the .txt file:

 

    {(   s)   build\bdist.win32\egg\colorama\winterm.pyi&#39;   t	   reset_all(   i   i   gp&#224;&#194;s% ?geO&#217;H&#204;œE?{(   s-   build\bdist.win32\egg\colorama\ansitowin32.pyi&#165;

What I really want is what happens when you invoke cProfile.run() which results in a neatly organized table printed showing the execution times of all the functions except instead of printed, saved in a file as this program is fairly large and runs a lot of functions.

Let&#39;s say I wanted to benchmark two programs: foo.py and bar.py.

Are a couple thousand runs and the respective averages of `time python foo.py` and `time python bar.py` adequate enough for profiling and comparing their speed?
&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;b&gt;Edit:&lt;/b&gt; Additionally, if the execution of each program was sub-second (assume it wasn&#39;t for the above), would `time` still be okay to use?

Is the UNIX `time` command accurate enough for benchmarks?

I want a team using different computers to be able to debug PHP on a **remote** server, but I am having a hard time getting Xdebug to work in NetBeans 7.0.1. I’ve tried many online tips, but to no avail.

For the record, I have successfully installed Xdebug **locally** on a Windows 7 machine running WampServer. So I *can* debug PHP with breakpoints in NetBeans, provided I set the *Project Properties-&gt;Run Configuration-&gt;Run As* property to *Local Web Site*. However, as stated above my goal is to debug in NetBeans on a *Remote Web Site*. 

My server is a Ubuntu 11.04 machine. I have used the output from [http://www.xdebug.org/find-binary.php][1] to put the proper binary on the machine. I have modified all `php.ini` files I could find (in both the `php5/apache2` and `php5/cli` directories) to include these lines:

    zend_extension=&quot;/usr/lib/php5/20090626+lfs/xdebug.so&quot;
    xdebug.remote_enable=1
    xdebug.remote_handler=dbgp
    xdebug.remote_host=localhost
    xdebug.remote_port=9000

If I check the `phpinfo.php` web page, it says: 

    This program makes use of the Zend Scripting Language Engine:
    Zend Engine v2.3.0, Copyright (c) 1998-2010 Zend Technologies
        with Xdebug v2.1.2, Copyright (c) 2002-2011, by Derick Rethans

So Xdebug does seem to be installed properly. Still, when I try debugging in NetBeans, I get the endless status bar message *Waiting For Connection (netbeans-xdebug)*. When I hit the stop button I get *No connection from xdebug was detected within X seconds. The reason could be that xdebug is not installed or not properly configured*.

Maybe I&#39;m confusing local settings with server settings here? [A post][2] said `xdebug.remote_host` should be set to the *IP of the machine running NetBeans*, but I want a team to be able to debug using machines with different IP addresses. A problem could be port 9000, but I have checked that it is not blocked.

Any help that could clarify this would be appreciated!

Xdebug for remote server not connecting

I have made a function that finds all the URLs within an html file and repeats the same process for each html content linked to the discovered URLs. The function is recursive and can go on endlessly. However, I have put a limit on the recursion by setting a global variable which causes the recursion to stop after 100 recursions.

However, php returns this error:

&gt;  Fatal error: Maximum function nesting level of &#39;100&#39; reached,
&gt; aborting! in
&gt; D:\wamp\www\crawler1\simplehtmldom_1_5\simple_html_dom.php on line
&gt; 1355

![ERROR](http://i.stack.imgur.com/J6cIy.png)

I found a solution here: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/4293775/increasing-nesting-functions-calls-limit but this is not working in my case.

*I am quoting one of the answers from the link mentioned above. Please do consider it.*

&gt;&quot;Do you have Zend, IonCube, or xDebug installed? If so, that is probably where you are getting this error from.
&gt;
&gt;I ran into this a few years ago, and it ended up being Zend putting that limit there, not PHP. Of course removing it will let &gt;you go past the 100 iterations, but you will eventually hit the memory limits.&quot;


Is there a way to increase the maximum function nesting level in PHP

I think that my server became slow since I installed XDebug.
So, in order to test my hypothesis I want to disable XDebug completely.
I&#39;ve been searching for tutorials on how to do this but I can&#39;t find such information.
