Creating a Break on Exception
You can choose to break on all exceptions, a single exception, or a
group of exceptions.
To break on all exceptions:
- Choose Debug | Debug Windows | Breakpoints
from the menu to display the Breakpoints window.
- Click the Break on Exceptions
tab to display the exceptions list.
- Check the box next to ALL
EXCEPTIONS.
To break on some exceptions only:
- Choose Debug | Debug Windows | Breakpoints
from the menu to display the Breakpoints window.
- Click the Break on Exceptions
tab.
- Check the box next to the exception name. You
can select more than one exception.
When your application runs in debug mode, execution is suspended upon
reaching a line of code that causes an exception. A message box appears
showing the cause of the suspension. The PL/SQL Editor opens and displays
the source unit with a pointer at the line of code where the exception
point is hit.
