Description Frederik Mortensen CLA 2020-05-04 06:43:59 EDT
I have to do remote debugging often. And use conditional breakpoints for this. Sometimes I set the breakpoint at the beginning of the class to see wether the code even runs into this class. But I need conditional, because I only want to pause my current request with my object (by name). THEN I maybe want to skip some lines and run to another method in this class. But for this I have to add another breakpoint. As I again dont want to stop ALL threads I again need to add a breakpoint, disable it, add the condition, enable it... It would be way easier to first use the conditional breakpoint to get into my thread, and then add some "temporary thread breakpoints", no condition, that will stop only for the current thread. And maybe will be deleted after debugging is ended or the thread is stopped.

Have you tried using Trigger breakpoint?
