zend_debugger.deny_hosts=

; The user ID of the httpd process that runs the Zend Debugger (only for tunneling)
zend_debugger.httpd_uid=-1

; A range of ports that the communication tunnel can use. This defines the minimum value for the range
zend_debugger.tunnel_min_port=1024

zend_debugger.enable_coverage=1

zend_debugger.xdebug_compatible_coverage=0
