Changing a Function Currently Being Executed

If you have made changes to the function currently being executed, the impact of the fix command depends on where the change is relative to the stopped in function:

• If the change is in code that has already been executed, the code is not re-executed. Execute the code by popping the current function off the stack (see pop Command) and continuing from where the changed function is called. You need to know your code well enough to determine whether the function has side effects that can’t be undone (for example, opening a file).

• If the change is in code that is yet to be executed, the new code is run.
