That is not a feature of C, but the IDE you are using.

Yes, actually.
gem install ruby-debug
Here's a quick screencast introducing ruby-debug.
If you have ever used it, it is similar to gdb.

Hello Sumanta:
In addition to the other good suggestions made by others, you may want to consider purchasing a ruby specific IDE that supports debugging such as Arachno Ruby:

But, is there a way to "debug" just within a particular method? That way one
can skip the rest of the code, which we know "works" fine.
Thanks

Sorry for the side track, but how good/complete is the Linux version of
this IDE (for anyone who knows)?
Thanks.

That appears to be a feature of the ruby-debug library. A quick Google
"ruby-debug" found this page:
DATANOISE.COM.

Hello Jim:
I can't speak to the Linux version because I've only tried (and purchased) the Windows version which is very good. I'm coming from Delphi so something like this IDE really eases the shock. The only significant thing missing compared to Delphi is a GUI builder but I can understand why because there are so many GUI choices for Ruby (I'm partial to wxRuby).
Might I suggest you download the 20 day trial of the Linux version of Arachno Ruby and try it out. There support is good too... I had some really stupid questions during the trial and they politely answered all of them.

Sure. Having recently learned the wonders of ruby-debug, I can tell you this: you can set a breakpoint in the method, then step through it from that point on, examining variables (and doing a lot of other useful things) to your hearts content. When ready, you can resume regular execution. Very nicely set up, I think you'll find. And...it's all command line stuff.

Thanks, Michael, for the suggestion. I'll consider checking out the
trial version when I've "gotten back into Ruby learning mode". (I
started studying Ruby over a year ago, got sidetracked by a Perl job,
and want to get back into learning Ruby, hopefully soon.)

Consider also trying the "community" (free) version - which is full featured - of the Aptana Studio ide - it's a full spectrum Ajax-Rails etc. development environment, which encompasses ruby and ruby debugging etc. It's also java, so it's big (but also obviously cross-platform). I have been using it off and on for some time, and it's very nice. Excellent support from the developers, too - very good forums. Still in development, but definitely far along and quite impressive.
