#424 [1.5.5.2010020711] breakpoints at blank lines ignored

[David Erni]

hi,
the title pretty much states the problem already, breakpoints at blank lines are ignored.

if __name__ == "__main__":

print "so long and thanks for all the fish!"

so in above example, breakpoints on line 1 and 3 will hit, but the one on line 2 won't.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or a feature since breakpoints on a blank line do not make that much sense after all. Nevertheless it would be handy to have the same behavior as the java editor in that case; automatically move the breakpoint to the next line containing a python statement.

cheers
