pry-rescue doesn't work correctly if pry-byebug is loaded

[abicky]

pry-byebug overwrites Pry.start and pry-rescue doesn't work correctly if pry-byebug is loaded, as you can see below:

% bundle exec pry
[1] pry(main)> require './a.rb'
=> true
[2] pry(main)> foo
RuntimeError: two
from /path/to/a.rb:4:in `rescue in foo'
[3] pry(main)> cd-cause

From: /path/to/.rbenv/versions/2.0.0-p353/lib/ruby/gems/2.0.0/gems/pry-rescue-1.4.1/lib/pry-rescue.rb @ line 207 PryRescue.with_program_name:

    202: def with_program_name name
    203:   before = $PROGRAM_NAME
    204:   $PROGRAM_NAME = name
    205:   yield
    206: ensure
 => 207:   $PROGRAM_NAME = before
    208: end

[1] pry(PryRescue)>

I just ran into the same issue, is there a fix for this?

[neumachen]

Anyone fixed this?

[hakunin]

Same problem here. Any workarounds?

[neumachen]

I downgraded especially to 3.1

[hakunin]

Thanks for the tip. Just realised I don't have byebug in the mix at the moment :) will log as a new issue.

There are many issues like this caused by the fact that pry-byebug changes pry so that it advances to the next line after a breakpoint is hit. See the discussion here: https://github.com/deivid-rodriguez/pry-byebug/issues/45

@hakunin @magicalbanana Other than downgrading (3.1 is the latest version of pry-byebug, I figure @magicalbanana meant 3.0.1 or from 3.1, I am not sure), I found an alternative workaround: disabling this annoying auto-loading of plugins and then loading it manually (now I can use the executable). I'd like to register it here for people that like me arrive here unaware of this "convenience".

Here's a patched pry 0.10.2pre to add more config tweaks (i.e., blacklisting plugins) via env vars and how to get it.

[cmrd-senya]

Works for me with pry-byebug 3.4.0 and pry-rescue 1.4.4.

[altV]

I have pry-byebug 3.4.0 and pry-rescue 1.4.4 - and I have the same problem with ruby 2.3.1

Still getting this as of 26/01/2017, any news?
