BoaDebugger - Boa Constructor IDE interactive Zope Debugging

   Description
  
     This Zope Instance is necessary to interact with the Boa Constructor
     IDE to allow you to use this IDE to debug an active Zope server.

     Boa expects to attach to your Zope server using XML-RPC and the
     parameters required here allow you to control Zope's Boa socket 
     listener.

   Controls

     'port'  -- the port upon which Zope will listen for Boa Constructor XML-RPC
                debugging requests

     'username'   -- username for optional XML-RPC Basic HTTP Authentication

     'password' -- password for optional XML-RPC Basic HTTP Authentication


   Tabs

     'Start'  -- start Zope's Boa Debugger Listener

     'Stop'   -- stop Zope's Boa Debugger Listener

     'Breakpoint Mode' -- place a breakpoint in Zope's main thread - this 
                          immediately suspends normal Zope operations and
                          places Zope in debug mode.  Your browser will not
                          return from this call.


   Operation

     Simply *Start* the BoaDebugger, then *Breakpoint Mode* when you are ready.

     From Boa Constructor, using Explorer, bring up the translation unit from 
     within your Product (or anything else on your Zope's Python Path).  In the
     Editor, choose *File* and *Attach to Debugger*, assign the values specified
     in your BoaDebugger instance and connect to the Zope server.

     Set some breakpoints from Boa's Editor.

     Using a browser, select a URL on your Zope server that exercise the
     breakpointed code, and start debugging ...
