Description 

Author

This class can output information about variables and other data.

It can take the value of a variable and outputs its type followed by the value or data structure. NULL, empty strings and boolean values are denoted in a special way.

The output is encoded depending on whether PHP is running as a Web page script or as CLI from the command line.

It may also perform other debugging tasks like measuring the time a script takes to execute, outputting debug information to file or FirePHP, throw exception when errors are triggered, get the script memory usage, etc..

debugInfo.class.php ====== Credits -------- This class is made by unreal4u (Camilo Sperberg). [http://unreal4u.com/](unreal4u.com). About this class -------- * When debugging, you need sometimes to check what's in a certain variable. This class does print that information * It will have in special consideration the type of the variable you're printing: as such it will clearly indicate whether you're printing a boolean, empty string or even null * Printing to screen is not practical? Print it to a file instead * Tired of triggering errors? Convert them easily to exceptions with just one function call. From now on, every error will be converted to an exception instead * Want to know how many time or memory a functionality in your script takes? Measure several of these benchmarks easily with this class! * Format a unix timestamp? You can also do that easily with this class! Basic usage ---------- <pre>include('debugInfo.class.php'); debug($variable); </pre> * Congratulations! You have just printed something to your screen! * **Please see documentation folder for more options and advanced usage** Version History ---------- * 0.1 : * Original class * 0.2 : * Many improvements, such as: * General cleanup * Code is now more consistent * Extensively tested * 0.3 : * Changed defaults to a much better representation * More checks for debugFirePHP * 1.0 : * Integrated old class "benchmark" into this one * Some minor bug fixes * 2.0 : * Compatible with composer * Refined auto-format output Contact the author ------- * Twitter: [@unreal4u](http://twitter.com/unreal4u) * Website: [http://unreal4u.com/](http://unreal4u.com/) * Github: [http://www.github.com/unreal4u](http://www.github.com/unreal4u)
