Exception Breakpoint Property Sheet
See Also
You can view the properties of an exception breakpoint by right-clicking
its name in the Breakpoints window and choosing Properties.
An exception breakpoint has the following properties:
- Exception Class Name. Shows the name of the class or superclass of
the exception.
- Stop On. Specifies the action that triggers the breakpoint. You can
stop the debugger only on exceptions that are caught, only on exceptions that
are not caught, or on all exceptions.
- Condition. Specifies a Boolean expression that triggers the breakpoint
when the expression evaluates to True. For information on the syntax rules
for setting a condition, see Setting
a Condition on a Breakpoint.
- Enabled. If True, stops the program when the program reaches the
breakpoint. If False, removes the breakpoint from your source code but saves
the breakpoint for later use.
- Valid. The debugger sets this property. If True, the breakpoint
has been successfully set in the debugged virtual machine. This action happens
when the breakpoint's class is loaded and the chosen line exists and contains
some instructions. If False, one of the conditions has not been satisfied.
One reason why Valid might be False is that the source is out of sync with
the debugged class.
- Suspend Debugging. If True, temporarily stops all threads in the
debugging session when the program reaches the breakpoint.
- Print Text. Specifies the text to print in the Debugger Console view
of the Output window when the breakpoint is reached. For information on the
tags you can include in the message, see Printing
a Breakpoint Message.
