Important Notice

The pages on this site contain documentation for very old MS-DOS software, purely for historical purposes. If you're looking for up-to-date documentation, particularly for programming, you should not rely on the information found here, as it will be woefully out of date.

     The Set Breakpoint command creates a breakpoint at a specified
     source line or address. Whenever CodeView encounters a breakpoint
     during program execution, the program halts and waits for a new
     command. You can set breakpoints at source lines, functions,
     explicit addresses, or labels in a program module.
 
     For any breakpoint, you can specify
 
        ■ A "pass count" to tell CodeView how many times to pass over
          the breakpoint
 
        ■ Commands to be executed after the program reaches the
          breakpoint
 
     Breakpoints remain in memory until you delete them or quit the
     debugger. They are not canceled when you restart the program.
