Debugging in Pycharm

Hello,
I was wondering if it is possible to use pycharm to debug python code? My linuxcnc is a normal installation from a bootable image, and I cannot seem to find a way to link.

Thanks for help!

yes it is

forum.linuxcnc.org/38-general-linuxcnc-q...-linuxcnc-on-pycharm

I cannot seem to find a linuxcnc-dev folder. I have installed linuxcnc as per instructions on linuxcnc.org/docs/html/getting-started/getting-linuxcnc.html , section 7.2 (Ubuntu Precise).

Apologies for my ignorance in this matter!

on Pycharm python console if you make "import linuxcnc" you get a error?


If so, you have to find where the linuxcnc.so file (I believe its a .so file) is on your system (on /lib folder maybe?). I don't have run in place installations so don't know the correct path...

No it doesn't!

Searching all the drive I managed to find two copies of linuxcnc.so in /usr/lib/tcltk/linuxcnc and /usr/lib/pyshared/python2.7

if you can import linuxcnc without errors, you should be able to debug your code when linuxcnc is runing.
