Debug Toolbar

See Also

The Debug (Full) toolbar provides access to the commands most frequently used to debug a program, such as the commands to start debugging a program, to step through code, to fix code, and to pause and continue program execution.

The following table lists the buttons in the basic Debug (Full) toolbar. These buttons are available with most debuggers. For a description of a button that is specific to a debugger, see the online help for that debugger.

Icon Description
Start icon  Starts a debugging session.
Attach icon Attaches the debugger to a process that is already running.
Finish icon Opens a dialog box in which you can select the debugging sessions you want to finish.
Pause icon Temporarily stops all threads in the current session.
Continue icon Resumes execution of all threads in the current session.
Step Over icon Executes one source line. If the source line contains a call, executes the entire routine without stepping through the individual instructions.
Step Into icon Executes one source line. If the source line contains a call, stops just before executing the first. statement of the routine.
Step Out icon Executes the current routine and returns control to the caller of the routine.
Run to Cursor icon Runs the current session to the cursor location in the Source Editor and pauses the program.
Fix icon Recompiles source code and swaps the resulting object code into the currently executing program.
New Watch icon Opens the New Watch dialog box.
Tip The IDE also includes a Debug toolbar that contains a smaller set of debugging commands. You can switch to a different toolbar by right-clicking an empty space in the toolbar area and selecting the appropriate toolbar.
