Set a breakpoint

A breakpoint causes a handler running in debug mode to pause execution. While the handler is paused, you can check the values of variables. You can set breakpoints in two ways. First, when the debug session is initially started, you will be prompted to pick a Notify Debugger step or initiator to break on. After one of those initial breakpoints is hit, you can then set a breakpoint on other steps.

Your handler must be in debug mode for the following procedure.

To set a breakpoint:

  1. Right-click on the step you want to set as a breakpoint.

  2. Choose Set Breakpoint from the menu that appears. The step's color changes to red. When the debug handler runs, it will automatically stop at this step.

Similarly, you can remove a breakpoint by choosing Remove Breakpoint.
