It facilitates modifying breakpoints (make them temporary or normal, disabled or enabled) and removing breakpoints. <UL> <LI><A HREF="#menus_bp">Breakpoint Menu</A></LI> <LI><A HREF="#menus_global">Global Menu</A></LI> <LI><A HREF="#display">Breakpoint Display</A></LI> </UL> <HR SIZE=4 WIDTH="100%"> <H2> <A NAME="menus_bp"></A>Breakpoint Menu</H2> The Breakpoint Menu operates on the selected breakpoint only. If no breakpoint is selected the menu items will be disabled. The type and state of a breakpoint may be changed by selecting the desired type or state from the menu. <DL> <DT>Normal</DT> <DD>The selected breakpoint is a normal breakpoint</DD> <DT>Temporary</DT> <DD>Indicates that the breakpoint is temporary</DD> <DT>Enabled</DT> <DD>The breakpoint is active and will stop the debugger when it is hit.</DD> <DT>Disabled</DT> <DD>The breakpoint is being ignored. A disabled breakpoint will never get hit.</DD> <DT>Remove</DT> <DD>Deletes the breakpoint</DD> </DL> <HR SIZE=4 WIDTH="100%"> <H2> <A NAME="menus_global"></A>Global Menu</H2> Items on the Global Menu affect all defined breakpoints. Users may: <DL> <DT>Show Threads</DT> <DD>Toggle on/off the thread column</DD> <DT>Enable All</DT> <DD>Enable all breakpoints</DD> <DT>Disable All</DT> <DD>Disable all breakpoints</DD> <DT>Remove All</DT> <DD>Delete all breakpoints</DD> </DL> <HR SIZE=4 WIDTH="100%"> <H2><A NAME="display"></A>Breakpoint Display</H2> The Breakpoint Display is a table of breakpoints. The first column of the table (unlabeled) shows a checkbutton, indicating whether the breakpoint is enabled (checked) or disabled (unchecked). Disabled breakpoints are ignored and will not cause the program to stop. <P>To use the Breakpoint Menu or the Breakpoint Pop-up Menu, first use the left mouse button to select a breakpoint from the list, then make the menu selection. <H4>Modifying Breakpoints</H4> To <A NAME="display_state"></A>enable a breakpoint, simply click the checkbutton in the first column of the desired breakpoint so that it is selected (checked). To disable a breakpoint, "uncheck" the checkbutton. <P>To change a breakpoint's <A NAME="display_temp"></A>type, select the desired type from either the Breakpoint Menu or the Breakpoint Pop-up Menu. <P>To remove a <A NAME="display_remove"></A>breakpoint, use the left mouse button to select the breakpoint to remove and use either the Breakpoint Menu or the Breakpoint Pop-up Menu to select "remove". To re-install a breakpoint, use the <A HREF="source.html#setting_a_breakpoint">Source Window Display</A>. <H4><A NAME="display_popup"></A>Breakpoint Pop-up Menu</H4> The Breakpoint Pop-up Menu is accessed by using the mouse cursor to select a breakpoint from the Breakpoint Display and then clicking the right button on the mouse. The Pop-up allows expert users quicker access to the functions of the Breakpoint Menu: <DL> <DT>Normal</DT> <DD>The selected breakpoint is a normal breakpoint</DD> <DT>Temporary</DT> <DD>Indicates that the breakpoint is temporary</DD> <DT>Enabled</DT> <DD>The breakpoint is active and will stop the debugger when it is hit.</DD> <DT>Disabled</DT> <DD>The breakpoint is being ignored. A disabled breakpoint will never get hit.</DD> <DT>Remove</DT> <DD>Deletes the breakpoint</DD> <DT>Global, Show Threads</DT> <DD>Toggle on/off the thread column</DD> <DT>Global, Enable All</DT> <DD>Enable all breakpoints</DD> <DT>Global, Disable All</DT> <DD>Disable all breakpoints</DD> <DT>Global, Remove All</DT> <DD>Delete all breakpoints</DD> </DL> </BODY> </HTML>
