condition command
condition command
Specifies a conditional expression to be evaluated when a breakpoint is hit. The
breakpoint is reported only if the condition evaluates to TRUE.
breakpoint-number
is the number of the breakpoint for which you want the specified expression to be
evaluated.
conditional-expression
is the conditional expression that you want evaluated when Native Inspect
encounters the specified breakpoint. If you omit the conditional-expression,
any existing condition is cleared, and the specified breakpoint is treated as an
unconditional breakpoint.
The conditional expression here is different from the low-level conditional
expression supported by the mab and break commands. Low-level conditional
expressions (LLCEs) are evaluated by interrupt processes in the NonStop
operating system. High-level conditional expressions (HLCEs), such as those
supported by the condition command, are evaluated by Native Inspect.
continue command
Continues execution of the current process. Native Inspect suspends command
prompting until the next debugging event occurs, or until you press the Break key.
ignore-count
specifies the number of times to ignore a breakpoint at the current location.
condition breakpoint-number [ conditional-expression ]
Note. Breakpoint conditions are evaluated only for the current process. Therefore, if you are
using a single Native Inspect instance to debug multiple processes (not recommended), and
another process encounters a breakpoint for which a condition is defined, the condition is not
evaluated.
