It won't work with Xdebug right now, as it indeed overrides just zend_execute and zend_execute_internal --- we should definitely look at fixing generators that they go through those as well. It's related to the zend_execute_internal hook missing from the other email that I just replied to (and your PR 178). cheers, Derick -- http://derickrethans.nl | http://xdebug.org Like Xdebug?
