Hello!

How do you set a watchpoint in the debugger of Eclipse with the ADT-Plugin?

Thanks!

Regards,

Vlad, to set one watchpoint, during the debugger, select one variable and in the menu bar click in Run > Toggle Watchpoint.

You can chose the values condition in Variables Box.

Thanks, that does the trick! 😉

Go to editor in Eclipse where your code is written and right click on the Vertical bar where the statement starts just like ABAP GUI Editor and you will see an option to place break point.

Hello Saurabh,

it's not a watchpoint, it's only a breakpoint.

Ofcourse, watchpoint needs to be set in debugger.

Thanks, Saurabh, but - as Adilson Vinicius Passos Junior also observed, I wasn't asking about how to set a breakpoint in debugger.

What I didn't know - until Adilson Vinicius Passos Junior's answer, thanks again for it! - was how to set a watchpoint.

Watchpoint <> Breakpoint 😉
