How to debug into sub functions in Perl?
Hi,
I have subfunction in my code and Perl debugger cannot go into it.
Here is what I do:
It stops at linenumber and when I say step into it it skips. n also does not work.
Here is the beginning of my sub function:

n runs until the next statement (the one immediately following this one in the current file) is about to execute. Note that if the current line is a subroutine call, the debugger won't stop until returning from that subroutine. To stop at the first line of the called subroutine, use the s (single-step) command instead. The r command executes until returning from the current subroutine (i.e., until we pop the activation stack).

Well, I already use s but it still does not go into the subroutine. Why is that?
Thanks,
