Setting a software break
If you want to stop the program at a specific position intentionally, you can break the program before the system executes it by setting a software break.
Let's see how the variable you registered to the watch window changes by setting a software break and running the program.
Click the empty column to the left of the desired line as shown below. A software break is set and the line is highlighted in red. |
Click the [Restart] button in the menu. |
The program breaks at the line where the break has been set and the break point line is highlighted in yellow. |
See the Watch panel and confirm that the value of [g_count] is counted up to 1. |
Status bar shows [BREAK] and the PC value at the break point. |
