Setting a breakpoint if variable changes?

[miskox]

Is it possible to set a breakpoint on a specific variable when it changes the value?

Thanks.

Yes,

For example:
- Start debugger with 'CallDeugger'
- Goto menu Debugger and add 'Data Breakpoints'
--- Condition: var <> 0
- Continue

Code: Select all

Global i, var

CallDebugger

For i = 1 To 100
  If i = 10
    var = 1
  EndIf
Next

I've been using PureBasic since 2004, but I saw this feature for the first time today.
Good to know, thanks.

Another fantastic debugging feature is the Watchlist. This is a window that shows real-time updates of any variables that you nominate, so you can see them as they change without needing to use the Debug() command everywhere.

Thanks. I will try the 'call debug'.

I've been using Purbasic since 2005. I've seen it for a while, but I tried it for the first time.

I use Watchlist all the time. But in my case I would have to press F8/F11... to many times because I am not sure when change happens.

Thanks.
