For XDebug (a php debugger) we need just like for an C++ application
run, debug, profile. Even
if the application is started by opening an external webbrowser. The
debugger/profiler plugins
need the possibility to add GET-parameters to the url - to activate
debugging/profiling.
And what we need for web-stuff is a possibility for at least two launchers:
- start an external webbrowser
- run in an internal webbrowser (something like OutputView for html)
...what about Unit-Tests? Are those normal launchers? It must be
possible to debug/profile a unit test.
