ipdb.set_trace inside set descriptor does not work

I'm trying to debug/understand the Django's API to build my own ORM. I've changed set and get descriptors from Fields to do what I want (validate when I set the object). Here's the code:

def __set__(self, obj, value):
        self.value = self.clean(value)

Some Fields are bugged because I've changed a lot of things inside it, and it crashes when I set the object. When I try to debug like:

def __set__(self, obj, value):
        import ipdb;ipdb.set_trace()
        self.value = self.clean(value)

the python stalls and I can't do nothing but stop the process than kill it or just close the terminal.

Does anyone know why ipdb can't handle this kind of call?

Have you tried using just plain PDB? It could be an issue where Django is starting a thread/process, and ipdb is pausing that, but not the main process. – PeterH Apr 12 '19 at 19:45
