Breakpoint with Condition

Formerly, ER breakpoints existed with no apparent properties. Breakpoints now have Condition and Hit Count properties which may be set or examined in the Breakpoint Properties dialog.

To set a breakpoint condition in the form of a logical expression:

1. In the Breakpoint Properties dialog click the Condition button.

2. The Breakpoint Condition dialog will now display. In this window you may enter the condition in the available field or click the Help button. The Help button brings up a dialog that documents the syntax for breakpoint conditions to assist in creating a condition.

   Note: For example one might write a condition using the format of "VariableName = LiteralValue". The resulting condition might be PO cSelfServiceMode='1'.

3. After entering a condition, the developer may use the Validate Condition button to validate the expression.

   Note: Checking the Condition checkbox in the Breakpoint Condition dialog enables the Condition. If the Condition checkbox is not checked then the condition is saved for possible later use, but is not effective.
