[转]Solution for PHP xdebug not formatting / overloading var_dump()

If any of you have ever experienced a problem with xdebug non displaying var_dump() with the nice overload method it includes, especially when using PHP 5.3, you may try the following:

1. Open your php.ini file
   (for instance located in /etc/php5/apache2/php.ini)
2. Locate the line that says html_errors = Off
3. Change it in html_errors = On
4. Restart your webserver (/etc/init.d/apache2 restart for instance)

If you didn’t change anything in the configuration of xdebug, overload_var_dumps should be already enabled and you should get var_dumps like the following :

object(stdClass)[1]
  public 'Brand' => 

string

 'BMW' (length=3)
  public 'Model' => 

string

 'M3' (length=2)
