Working with breakpoint groups

You can specify which breakpoint group is the current group, add breakpoint groups to your programs, disable or enable existing breakpoints in a group, and remove breakpoint groups (including all the breakpoints in the group) from your programs.

You can also change the properties for a breakpoint or a breakpoint group. For information about how to change the properties of a breakpoint group, see the following topic:

Working with properties

Note: You can work with the PASE Debugger in a variety of ways: by right-clicking or double-clicking appropriate objects, by using a menu or a keyboard shortcut, or by using the tool bar (if the menu command has a tool icon). The following procedures specify only one way to select a command.

Specifying a breakpoint group

To specify the current breakpoint group, from the tool bar, use the Current Breakpoint Group list to select a group. PASE Debugger automatically creates new breakpoints under the current breakpoint group.

Adding breakpoint groups

To add a breakpoint group, right-click in the Breakpoints pane and select New Breakpoint Group.

Disabling and enabling breakpoint groups

To disable or enable all the breakpoints in a group, in the Breakpoints pane, right-click the appropriate breakpoint group and select Disable Breakpoint or Enable Breakpoint.

Removing breakpoint groups

To remove a breakpoint group, in the Breakpoints pane, right-click the breakpoint group that you want to remove and select Delete Breakpoint Group. Removing a breakpoint group removes all the breakpoints in the group.

Tip: When you want to use a command on more than one breakpoint group, select multiple groups by pressing Ctrl as you click a group.
