| Breakpoint Suspend Policy Option |
| </title> |
| </head> |
| <body> |
| <h1>Breakpoint Suspend Policy Option</h1> |
| <hr> |
| <p>This option is used to indicate what should be suspended when a breakpoint is hit. </p> |
| <p>There are two options for Java breakpoints:</p> |
| <ul> |
| <li>Suspend Thread, which suspends only the thread affected by the breakpoint being hit</li> |
| <li>Suspend VM which will suspend the entitre VM when the breakpoint is hit <br> |
| </li> |
| </ul> |
| <p>This option can be changed by using the <a href="../../reference/views/breakpoints/ref-properties_contextaction.htm">breakpoint properties dialog</a>, or by using the <a href="../../reference/views/breakpoints/ref-suspendpolicy_contextaction.htm">context menu</a> for the breakpoint.</p> |
| <p><img src="../../images/debug_breakpoints_ref/ref-breakpoint_suspendpolicy.PNG" alt="Breakpoint suspend policy option"></p> |
| <p>You can also change the default setting for the suspend policy for all newly created breakpoints. </p> |
| <p>To do this go to the <a class="command-link" href='javascript:executeCommand("org.eclipse.ui.window.preferences(preferencePageId=org.eclipse.jdt.debug.ui.JavaDebugPreferencePage)")'> <img src="PLUGINS_ROOT/org.eclipse.help/command_link.png"> Java >Debug preference page</a> and change it there. </p> |
