A breakpoint is a flag in the source code that tells the debugger to stop execution of the program. When your program stops on a breakpoint, you can perform actions like examining the value of variables and single-stepping through your program.
The IDE lets you set line, function, and instruction breakpoints in C or C++ applications using the New Breakpoint dialog box. You can also set line breakpoints directly in the Source Editor by clicking the line number.
