Eval php code in temporary files to enable debugging

```
composer require icewind/executer

```

Why not just use `eval`?
------------------------

[](#why-not-just-use-eval)

Since code loaded trough `eval` doesn't come from a file it's not possible for debuggers to show you the code being executed, by placing the code in a temporary file and including it you gain the ability view the code in your favorite debugger while stepping trough it.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
use Icewind\Executer\Executer;

$executer = new Executer();
$executer->evalCode('echo "foo"');
```

API
---

[](#api)

- `evalCode(string $code)` Execute eval-compatible code (*doesn't* start with '<?php...')
- `includeCode(string $code)` Execute include-compatible code (start with '<?php...')
