如何将Python pdb.set_trace（）与重新分配的sys.stdout一起使用？

Question

I want to filter the output of a Python script through a command, and at the same time be able to use pdb.set_trace() normally.

I run this script:

#!/usr/bin/python

import sys, os, pdb

print "first line"
sys.stdout = os.popen('./filter', 'w')
#pdb.set_trace()
print "second line"
print "third line"  

and the filter script is this:

#!/usr/bin/python

import subprocess, sys

subprocess.call( 'cat', stdout=sys.stdout, stderr=sys.stderr, shell=True )

Everything works fine, I see the output on the terminal. But, when I uncomment the set_trace line, now, the debugger apparently breaks and I can use commands, but I don't see their output (until the whole program exists), so interactive debugging is broken.

How to change filter so that the interactive debugging works?

You could try making your own Pdb instance. eg.

mypdb = pdb.Pdb(stdout=sys.__stdout__)
