I'm wondering if there is a way to add a conditional break point in eclipse while debuging. Sample: if city=="New York" then break.
How to create a conditional breakpoint To create a conditional breakpoint, first set a breakpoint on a line (Ctrl+Shift+B), right-click on the breakpoint and select Breakpoint Properties. Then configure a condition that returns a boolean. Eclipse only stops if the conditions returns true.
Debugging the Eclipse IDE for Java Developers. Debugging is the routine process of locating and removing bugs, errors or abnormalities from programs.
Finally, if the application is running outside Eclipse, we can still use all the above functionalities, provided that the remote application allows debugging. From Eclipse, we would select Debug as Remote Java Application.
Whether using gdb or a different backend debugger, CDT Debug provides a consistent visual interface and has several powerful views that provide different insights into your code. This article highlights some of the newest and most useful features in Eclipse CDT 9.2 edition that helps save precious time while debugging your code.
Yes. Right-click on the breakpoint, select "Breakpoint properties", enable "Conditional" and then enter the condition. Note that city == "New York"
wouldn't be a good condition due to the way equality works in Java, but "New York".equals(city)
would be fine. Note that Eclipse allows simple Boolean conditions like this, and also "suspend when value changes".
