Managing Breakpoints

To open breakpoint window:

From toolbar, click

Statement at any breakpoint is displayed as RED background.

You can set a simple breakpoint on a specific line from within the Source View Window. If you want to specify an action to perform when the breakpoint hits or triggers the breakpoint only when a specific condition is met, modify the breakpoint from the Breakpoint Window.

To set a breakpoint using the Source View Window:

• Click on the left margin adjacent to the line where you want to set your breakpoint, or press Ctrl-B.
• Double click on the line where you want to set breakpoint.

The line is highlighted to indicate that the breakpoint is set.

To Modify Breakpoint Properties

Once you have created a breakpoint, you can set or modify its properties. To modify breakpoint properties:

1. Open the Breakpoints window.
2. Click the column/rows of which properties you want to change.
3. Modify the properties to your preferred settings.

To View the Source For a Breakpoint

If a breakpoint is not displayed in the Source View Window, and the source is available, you can use the Breakpoints window to find the source:

• Click the blue link in the Breakpoints window.

  The focus in the Source Editor is set to the specific breakpoint.

To Enable/Disable a Breakpoint

Disable a breakpoint when you want to remove it from your source code but save it for later use. A disabled breakpoint remains in the breakpoint list but no longer causes the breakpoint to pause. To enable or disable a breakpoint:
