| </p></td> |
| <td align="left" valign="top"> <p> The debugger displays source code in |
| an editor when stepping through an application. When this option is |
| on, the debugger will reuse the editor that it opened to display source |
| from different source files. This prevents the debugger from opening |
| an excessive number of editors. When this option is off, the debugger |
| will open a new editor for each source file that needs to be displayed. |

| <td align="left" valign="top">Activate the workbench when when a breakpoint |
| is hit</td> |
| <td align="left" valign="top">This option brings attention to the debugger |
| when a breakpoint is encountered, by activating the associated window. |
| The visual result varies from platform to platform. For example, on Windows, |
| the associated window's title bar will flash.</td> |

| <td align="left" valign="top">Activate the debug view when a breakpoint |

| <td align="left" valign="top">This option brings attention to the debug |

| <td align="left" valign="top">This option controls whether breakpoints are |
| ignored when performing a 'Run to Line' operation. When the option is |
| on, the debugger does not suspend at breakpoints encountered when a 'Run |
| to Line' operation is invoked. When the option is off, breakpoints behave |
| normally. </td> |
