Managing Breakpoint Groups

You can enable or disable several breakpoints with a single action, by creating a breakpoint group and putting breakpoints into it. Once you've created a breakpoint group, you can enable, disable, or remove them like any single breakpoint.

You can also drag and drop a breakpoint into or out of a group in the Breakpoints window.

To create a breakpoint group:

  1. In the Breakpoints window, right-click a breakpoint and choose Edit Breakpoint from the context menu.
    The Edit Breakpoint dialog appears.
  2. In the Breakpoint Group Name field, enter a group name for this breakpoint.
  3. Click OK.
    A new group is created in the Breakpoints window, and is indicated by a folder icon. The breakpoint you just edited is automatically put in the new group.

Moving a breakpoint into a breakpoint group:

Follow these steps or drag-and-drop the breakpoint into the breakpoint group.

  1. In the Breakpoints window, right-click a breakpoint and choose Edit Breakpoint from the context menu.
    The Edit Breakpoint dialog appears.
  2. From the Breakpoint Group Name field, select a breakpoint group from the dropdown list.
  3. Click OK.
    The breakpoint is added into the specified group.
