To start debugging, choose the Run or Run To Cursor command from
the Debug menu. The following table lists the Start Debug menu
commands that may appear and their actions.
Run/Continue
Executes code from the begin or from the current statement until a breakpoint
(left-click with a mouse on the editor's gutter to set/remove a breakpoint)
or the end of the program is reached, or until the application pauses for
user input.
Single Step
Single-steps through instructions in the program, and enters each function
call that is encountered. Note that the execution speed of program may be
very slow while in Single Step mode. Also we do not recommend that you use
the Single Step command while in the body of a callback function such as
WindowProc one (WIN32.HLP). In such a situation, the debugger might
reset the single step mode after exiting from the callback function.
We recommend that you use the Run To Cursor command instead.
Run To Cursor
Executes the program as far as the line that contains the insertion point.
This is equivalent to setting a temporary breakpoint at the insertion point
location. You can use Run To Cursor to run your program and pause before the
location of a suspected problem.
Program Reset
Terminates the debugging session, and returns to a normal editing session.
When resetting a program, Windows may not properly release all resources
allocated by the code.
Add Watch
By choosing the Add Watch command you can create and modify debugging watches.
After you create a watch, it will be added to the Watches window, which is
located at the bottom of IDE's Editor.
Inspect...
Select Inspect to display information about the specified expression
(variable, record field or array element). Inspect is only available
if the debugging session is in suspended mode (for instance, after stopping at
breakpoint or after execution of the Single Step command). The Inspect
doesn't work when the expression has no value.
Show Program Variables
Shows a window which displays all local and global variables visible in the
debugging application. Show Program Variables is only available if the
debugging session is in suspended mode.
Show CPU State
Shows a window which displays the CPU registers. Show Program Variables
is only available if the debugging session is in suspended mode.
