Breakpoints
The Breakpoints view displays a list of all breakpoints and platform breaks that are currently set. You can use the view to set, delete, modify, enable, or disable various types of breakpoints and platform breaks.
See the table below for icons and other GUI details for breakpoints:
Icon | Name | Description | Parameters |
---|---|---|---|
Line Breakpoint | Suspends the program execution before a particular line of code is executed | ||
Function Breakpoint | Suspends the program execution before a particular function is executed | ||
Software Address Breakpoint | Suspends the program execution before a particular assembler instruction on the software level is executed | ||
Hardware Address Breakpoint | Suspends the program execution before a particular assembler instruction on the hardware level is executed | ||
Platform Break (Event Breakpoint) | Intercepts system-level events like system reset or the System Management Mode entry/exit |
| |
Watchpoint | Suspends the program execution whenever the value of a given expression changes |
In the current Intel(R) System Debugger configuration, you must explicitly specify the name of the event to be intercepted by the Platform Break. Only use names provided in the table above and pay attention to spelling and case.
