Debugging from the ADE Desktop

To start a debugging session from the ADE Desktop, choose the Tools Application Debugger option from the menu bar or click on the Application Debugger button. Figure 3–6 shows the Application Debugger button choice in Windows.

Figure 3–6: Debugging from the ADE Desktop

The Desktop immediately initializes and gives control to the Debugger without an initial application running. Starting from the Desktop runs the Debugger in stand-alone mode, ready to execute and debug any procedures you choose. Note that the Debugger does not automatically set a breakpoint on the first executable line of procedures you execute from the Debugger when you start it from the Desktop. Be sure to set at least one breakpoint before running a procedure.

NOTE: You can use the break interrupt function from the Debugger window to stop execution in any procedure, whether or not it has a breakpoint set. For more information, see Debugger Window."
