Method Descriptions
-------------------

.. _class_EngineDebugger_method_has_capture:

- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **has_capture** **(** :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>` name **)**

Returns ``true`` if a capture with the given name is present otherwise ``false``.

----

.. _class_EngineDebugger_method_has_profiler:

- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **has_profiler** **(** :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>` name **)**

Returns ``true`` if a profiler with the given name is present otherwise ``false``.

----

.. _class_EngineDebugger_method_is_active:

- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **is_active** **(** **)**

Returns ``true`` if the debugger is active otherwise ``false``.

----

.. _class_EngineDebugger_method_is_profiling:

- :ref:`bool<class_bool>` **is_profiling** **(** :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>` name **)**

Returns ``true`` if a profiler with the given name is present and active otherwise ``false``.

----

.. _class_EngineDebugger_method_profiler_add_frame_data:

- void **profiler_add_frame_data** **(** :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>` name, :ref:`Array<class_Array>` data **)**

Calls the ``add`` callable of the profiler with given ``name`` and ``data``.

----

.. _class_EngineDebugger_method_profiler_enable:

- void **profiler_enable** **(** :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>` name, :ref:`bool<class_bool>` enable, :ref:`Array<class_Array>` arguments=[] **)**

Calls the ``toggle`` callable of the profiler with given ``name`` and ``arguments``. Enables/Disables the same profiler depending on ``enable`` argument.

----

.. _class_EngineDebugger_method_register_message_capture:

- void **register_message_capture** **(** :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>` name, :ref:`Callable<class_Callable>` callable **)**

Registers a message capture with given ``name``. If ``name`` is "my_message" then messages starting with "my_message:" will be called with the given callable.

Callable must accept a message string and a data array as argument. If the message and data are valid then callable must return ``true`` otherwise ``false``.

----

.. _class_EngineDebugger_method_register_profiler:

- void **register_profiler** **(** :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>` name, :ref:`EngineProfiler<class_EngineProfiler>` profiler **)**

----

.. _class_EngineDebugger_method_send_message:

- void **send_message** **(** :ref:`String<class_String>` message, :ref:`Array<class_Array>` data **)**

Sends a message with given ``message`` and ``data`` array.

----

.. _class_EngineDebugger_method_unregister_message_capture:

- void **unregister_message_capture** **(** :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>` name **)**

Unregisters the message capture with given ``name``.

----

.. _class_EngineDebugger_method_unregister_profiler:

- void **unregister_profiler** **(** :ref:`StringName<class_StringName>` name **)**

Unregisters a profiler with given ``name``.
