Checking objects in Python 3.4 IDLE debugger on Windows

I am new to Python. I am using Python IDLE Debugger on Windows. Is there a way to check the attributes of objects in the debugger? The debugger only shows the address / type of the object.

I tried to create global variables and assign object attributes to them. The debugger then shows the global variables. This works for mutable types such as a list, but for an immutable type such as int, it only shows the value when assigned. Is there a way to bind the global name to the global attribute of the object object?

To close the loop for this, based on the responses received:



  • IDLE debugger does not support checking object in popup
  • Thanks to Terry Jan Reedy for contributing his list for future potential improvements. IDLE is a great help for new Python programmers.
