Tip! Conditional breakpoints are special markers to pause the execution of a document when encountered and their logical condition evaluates to True


Tip! When running the example, the value of the [DoBreak] variable determines whether or not a conditional breakpoint is activated. This example assumes [True].

1. Open the example file

Open file [Xml\Tutorial\12. Debugging documents\Debugging.Xml]



2. Set the breakpoint on process [Only keep Belgian ISINs]

Right click the mouse on process [Only keep Belgian ISINs]

Click on [Set conditional breakpoint...] in the context menu





The [Set conditional breakpoint] window is displayed

Set the [Expression] field to [DoBreak=true]

Click the [Apply] button



The IDE shows the (conditional) breakpoint that was just set



3. Run until breakpoint ("Pause") and examine intermediate results

Click the green [Run] button on the toolbar to run the document until the breakpoint


The output of the first process [Show transactions] is displayed in the [Search in datatable] window

Examine the results and close the window by pressing the cross in the upper right side



The [Intermediate execution result] window is displayed

Examine the values of variables, datatables, external tables, and logging before the breakpoint

Close the [Intermediate execution result] window




The IDE remains in run mode and shows the current [Paused] status




Execution of a document in [Paused] status can be either stopped or resumed
