    Xdebug truncates the output of (at least) strings and arrays, to avoid it getting to big.

    The amout of data that’s printed can be configured using these directives :

    For more informations and example, see Variable Display Features

    You’ll have to edit your php.ini file (or xdebug.ini file, depending on your setup), to define those directives, with values that suit your needs.

    For example, on Ubuntu, in my /etc/php5/conf.d/xdebug.ini file, I have the following lines :

    xdebug.var_display_max_children = 256
xdebug.var_display_max_data = 2048
xdebug.var_display_max_depth = 8
