Exiting Python Debugger ipdb


The following worked for me:

import syssys.exit()

On newer versions of ipython, as mentioned above and below, this doesn't work.In that case,

import osos._exit(0)

should still do the trick.


I put the following in my .pdbrc

import osalias kk os.system('kill -9 %d' % os.getpid())

kk kills the debugger and (the process that trigger the debugger).


It's the problem with the recent version of IPython 5.1.0. You can check with your environment using the following code:

pip freeze | egrep -i '^i'

It will be resolved by downgraded to IPython==5.0.0.

pip install ipython==5.0.0

That works for me.
