Setting breakpoints

You can set breakpoints on rule expressions to facilitate a step-through analysis of the rules. When you have finished, you can remove individual breakpoints or remove all the breakpoints at once.

About this task

You can set breakpoints only on the parts of the rule that are executed, that is, function statements and rule actions. If you try to set a breakpoint on a line where breakpoints are meaningless, the breakpoint is set at the next valid line.

Procedure

To set a rule breakpoint in a rule:

  1. In the Intellirule editor, select the line where you want to set a rule breakpoint.
  2. Then perform one of the following actions:

    • Select Toggle Breakpoint either from the Run menu or after right-clicking in the shaded border at the rule.

    • Double-click the Intellirule editor margin.

    • Press CTRL+SHIFT+B.

    A blue dot appears on the margin of the Intellirule editor.
