<P>The Tracepoint Window lists all the various tracepoints that exist in

the program. It facilitates modifying tracepoints (make them

temporary or normal, disabled or enabled) and removing tracepoints.</P>

The Tracepoint Window contains two menus, one which deals specifically with
|
|
the individual tracepoints selected in the window, and one whose commands
|
|
affect all tracepoints.
|
|

|
|
|
<H4><A NAME="menus_bp">Tracepoint Menu</A></H4>
|
|
The Tracepoint Menu operates on the selected tracepoint only. The
|
|
state of a tracepoint may be changed by selecting the desired state
|
|
from the menu:
|
|
<DL>
|
|
<DT>Actions
|
|
<DD><A HREF="tracedlg.html">Display the Tracepoint Dialog</A> for
|
|
this tracepoint.
|
|
<DT>Enabled
|
|
<DD>The tracepoint is active and will stop the debugger
|
|
when it is hit.
|
|
<DT>Disabled
|
|
<DD>The tracepoint is being ignored. A disabled tracepoint
|
|
will never get hit.
|
|
<DT>Remove
|
|
<DD>Deletes the tracepoint
|
|
</DL>
|
|
<BR>
|
|
|
|
<H4><A NAME="menus_global">Global Menu</A></H4>
|
|
Items on the Global Menu affect all defined tracepoints. Users may:
|
|
<DL>
|
|
<DT>Enable All
|
|
<DD>Enable all tracepoints
|
|
<DT>Disable All
|
|
<DD>Disable all tracepoints
|
|
<DT>Remove All
|
|
<DD>Delete all tracepoints
|
|
</DL>
|
|
<BR>
|
|
|
|
<H4><A NAME="display">Tracepoint Display</A></H4>
|
|
The Tracepoint Display is a table of tracepoints. The first column of the
|
|
table (unlabeled) shows a checkbutton, indicating whether the tracepoint
|
|
is enabled (checked) or disabled (unchecked). Disabled tracepoints are
|
|
ignored and will not cause any actions to be performed on the target.
|
|
|
|
<P>To use the Tracepoint Menu or the Tracepoint Pop-up Menu, first use
|
|
the left mouse button to select a tracepoint from the list, then make the
|
|
menu selection.</P>
|
|
|
|
<H3>Modifying Tracepoints</H3>
|
|
To <A NAME="display_state">enable</A> a tracepoint, simply click the
|
|
checkbutton in the first column of the desired tracepoint so that it is
|
|
selected (checked). To disable a tracepoint, "uncheck" the checkbutton.
|
|
|
|
<P>To remove a <A NAME="display_remove">tracepoint</A>, use the left mouse
|
|
button to select the tracepoint to remove and use either the tracepoint Menu
|
|
or the Tracepoint Pop-up Menu to select "remove". To re-install a tracepoint,
|
|
use the <A HREF="source.html#setting_a_tracepoint">Source Window Display</A>.
|
|
</P>
|
|

|
|
|
|
<H4><A NAME="display_popup">Tracepoint Pop-up Menu</A></H4>
|
|
The Tracepoint Pop-up Menu is accessed by using the mouse cursor to select
|
|
a tracepoint from the Tracepoint Display and then clicking the right button
|
|
on the mouse. The Pop-up allows expert users quicker access to the functions
|
|
of the Tracepoint Menu:
|
|
<DL>
|
|
<DT>Actions
|
|
<DD>Display the <A HREF="tracedlg.html">Tracepoint Dialog</A> for
|
|
the selected tracepoint. This allows the tracepoint's actions
|
|
to viewed or edited.
|
|
<DT>Enabled
|
|
<DD>The tracepoint is active and will causes actions to be
|
|
performed on the target when it is hit
|
|
<DT>Disabled
|
|
<DD>The tracepoint is being ignored. A disabled tracepoint
|
|
will never perform any actions or be recorded in the trace
|
|
buffer.
|
|
<DT>Remove
|
|
<DD>Deletes the tracepoint
|
|
<DT>Global, Enable All
|
