You'll need GDB compiled with python support, and the pdbinject package:

easy_install install pdbinject

The default GDB does not come compiled with Python support.

Homebrew fixes that:

brew install gdb

$ python example/loop.py &
Process running with PID 6319

$ sudo pdbinject 6319
Remote PDB has been configured on port 4444

        nc 127.0.0.1 4444

$ nc 127.0.0.1 4444

-> debugger.set_trace()

Now have some fun:

from guppy import hpy
hp = hpy()
heap = hp.heap()
heap.get_rp()
