Modifying Source Using fix and continue

You can modify source code in the following ways when using fix and continue:

• Add, delete, or change lines of code in functions

• Add or delete functions

• Add or delete global and static variables

Restrictions

Sun WorkShop might have problems when functions are mapped from the old file to the new file. To minimize such problems when editing a source file:

• Do not change the name of a function.

• Do not add, delete, or change the type of arguments to a function.

• Do not add, delete, or change the type of local variables in functions currently active on the stack.

• Do not make changes to the declaration of a template or to template instances. Only the body of a C++ template function definition can be modified.

If you need to make any of the proceeding changes, rebuild your program.
