Datasheet

❑ Toggle Breakpoint — This command toggles whether the current code line contains a breakpoint.
When execution reaches a line with an active breakpoint, execution pauses so you can examine the
code and program variables. You can also toggle a line’s breakpoint by clicking on the margin to
the left of the line in the code editor. In Figure 1-20, line number 5 displays a circle containing an
arrow on the left, indicating that it has a breakpoint (the circle) and that it is the current line of
execution (the arrow). The following line contains a disabled breakpoint, indicated by a hollow
circle in the left margin.
❑ New Breakpoint — This submenu contains the Break At Function command. This command
displays a dialog box that lets you specify a function where the program should break.
❑ Delete All Breakpoints — This command removes all breakpoints from the entire solution.
