Stop the debugger

While in Debug mode, you can stop the debugger to end the debug session for the current handler. If you stop the debug session, a prompt appears asking if you want to kill the handler. If you choose No, the handler continues to run to its normal completion. If you choose Yes, then all execution of the handler stops at that breaking point and does not continue to execute in IP. This behavior is configurable through the Designer Preferences page.

To stop the debugger:

To stop the debugger, you can do one of the following:

Click the $images\stop.gif$ button.
Select Stop from the debug menu.
Close the debug session window.

While execution is paused on a step, it is possible to change the execution point to another step. Right-click on the step from which you want execution to continue and select "Set Execution Point to This Step" from the pop-up menu. This allows users to step around known bugs during debugging.

Note: The execution point cannot be reset while the handler is paused on the initiator, nor can the execution point be set back to the initiator from elsewhere in the handler.
