The Breakpoint List window is a dockable window that displays the list of user breakpoints in loaded executable code.

The Breakpoints List window displays breakpoints in a tree view.

The top-level entry for each breakpoint shows

  • The name of the function
  • The source file
  • The line number

For example, the top-level entry for a breakpoint at line 98 in the thisFunc function from the someSrc.cpp file would be

at '{thisFunc,someSrc.cpp}.line 98'

If the breakpoint is instantiated, you can expand this level. Instances of the breakpoint appear with the following additional information.

  • Breakpoint address and context, including function name, source file, module name, and PID
  • Breakpoint line number and applicable condition, if any

For the preceding example, an expanded breakpoint line might look like this:

at '{thisFunc,someSrc.cpp}.line 98'
      at '(thisFunc,someSrc.cpp, someExe.exe,,} line 98'(0x030241)

If the same breakpoint has multiple instances, each instance has a single entry in the list.

You can enable a disabled breakpoint in the breakpoint list by checking it, or disable an enabled breakpoint in the list by unchecking it.
