ABSTRACT

Builder 4: conditional breakpoints. Let’s suppose you are in the middle of a for loop, which creates some problem when a variable has a value greater than 4. It can be boring (and time consuming) to step over four times whenever we want to achieve the critical situation of our code. In Flash Builder we can now enable the condition that has to be met to stop at a given breakpoint by right-clicking on the circle and selecting “Breakpoint properties” (see Figure 2.15 ). This opens a window that allows defining when the execution has to pause (see Figure 2.16 ).
