Description
Start Debugging
Allows you to start the debugger.
Resume Debugging
Allows you to run the debugger to the next breakpoint or end of the service.
Step Over
Allows you to execute the current line of code and proceed to the next line. If it is the last line, the step over returns you to the caller function. If the current line is a function or service with a breakpoint, the step over will pause at that breakpoint.
Step Into
Allows you to move the debugging execution to the next line of code while also going into any function that is called on that line. You can use this to examine the code inside the called function.
Step Out
Allows you to return to the caller function after having stepped into a different function during debugging and skip the rest of that function's execution.
Stop Debugging
Allows you to stop the debugger.
Activate Breakpoints or Deactivate Breakpoints
Allows you to switch between using breakpoints or deactivating breakpoints during debugging. If you deactivate breakpoints, all breakpoints will be ignored.
