Setting special breakpoint using IDE

A special breakpoint is not a regular breakpoint and therefore, cannot be set by double-clicking.

To set a special breakpopint:

1. Choose Breakpoint Types > C/C++ Software Breakpoint or C/C++ Hardware Breakpoint from any of the following views:
   • Editor - From the shortcut menu that appears on right-clicking the marker bar.
   • Disassembly - From the shortcut menu that appears on right-clicking the marker bar of the Disassembly view.
   • Outline - From the shortut menu of the selected C++ class method.
   • In the editor area, directly to the left of the line where you want to add the breakpoint, choose Toggle Breakpoint from the shortcut menu. You can also double-click the marker bar next to the source code line.

     A new special breakpoint marker appears on the marker bar, directly to the left of the line, where you added the breakpoint.

     Tip: To add a special breakpoint while debugging your project, right-click the marker bar to the left of a source code line and choose Breakpoint Types > C/C++ Software Breakpoint or C/C++ Hardware Breakpoint from the shortcut menu.
