it's not always easy or convenient to setup a full php debug environement when developping components, so this tools really comes handy.

A must have for joomla extension developers. So easy to use and so usefull to dump from scripts that do not display. Would be great when strings could be printed with whole length.

This extension is a must have for developers, you can easily see your variables by just using a simple line.
Thank you for the developer.

The J!Dump system allows you to view not only your development properties but also methods. It quickly becomes the Joomla Developer's Chief Information officer

This is a tool I have been using since day 1 of its discovery.

I've grown into it so much I'm having a hard time writing Joomla code if I have to miss it.

What features do I especially like?
- the ease with which one can see structured information (all data in an object)
- the possibility to check multiple variables (or multiple iterations of the same variable in the course of my program) with a clear description next to them.

I would like to see the option in the backend configuration to only popup if you're logged in as (super) administrator. This way, the popup wouldn't bug other visitors to the site. It would also prevent data popping up to unwanted eyes.

Obviously, this is not a tool that you want to have (or keep running) on a live site. But it's great for debugging - and (nice too) you're able to turn off the component. That way you can have the component on-site, just waiting for you to need it.

My Joomla developing speed is rapidly increased,
Thank you for this cool "Joomla-style" debugging Tool! Don't now how I can live without :-)

Thanks for this addon. It's a very practical developper tool. It smartly replaces the echo ""; print_r ($object);. The collapse feature makes the large objects much more readable.

Once I learned about it and began using it I started to wonder how could I ever code without it! It is absolutely the best tool to gain insight on your code without ugly calls to var_dump() and die() or rolling your own log files. It is also much, much more intuitive than PHP-level debuggers, like XDebug.

I recommend it without hesitation or second thought to every Joomla! developer.

Easy install and indispensable for debugging behavioral issues that the usual debugging tools are too cumbersome for. Very handy!

j!dump is amazing for developing with. it makes funding out what you're code is doing much, much easier.

I had been having so many issues with debugging my components and J!Dump has really made my life easier! I had been attempting to use print_r, die, and echo statements to debug and was frustrated at the many limitations of doing things that way and figuring out exactly where my statements were in the code. This tool not only lets you set your custom messages and dumps the variables, it also tells you what file and line number the code is. Going back and getting rid of all of the statements is much easier now. Thanks for this great tool!

Just great, very simple tool that helps alot

Easy install! The application seems to work as described, but I don't understand the admin component. no output!

It is as easy as adding to any script. Add the previous to your template as a simple test.
