Set Breakpoint
1.
To set a breakpoint, right click a code line and select Set Breakpoint from the
pop-up menu.
As an example, find the following line of code and set a breakpoint on this line.
ToggleLED();
A red stop sign should appear in the gutter (gray bar on the left) of the source
code window.
2.
Press <F9> to run the code. The program halts on the instruction following the
breakpoint.
Note:
An alternate method is to simply double click the line. This feature may
need to be enabled using the Edit>Properties menu.
Note:
The instruction on which the code halts could be elsewhere in the code if
the breakpoint was set on or immediately after a branch instruction. Refer
to Section 12, “Important Notes”, in the Readme file for the
MPLAB
ICD 2.txt
file located in the E:\MPLAB IDE\READMES directory for
additional operational information.
