US Patent 7552425 Implementing enhanced compiled breakpoint analysis

Compiled breakpoint analysis includes a debugger user interface that is displayed for defining breakpoint properties. Responsive to a predefined user selection, a conditional breakpoint and condition are exported to be compiled for debug. When a source module is compiled for debug, the conditional breakpoint is inserted into the program executable for a user-selected line. When debugging the program executable, the compiled conditional breakpoint is identified. A compiled breakpoint table is used to set a conditional breakpoint on the user-selected line and to identify statement numbers for the true and false legs of a compiled condition.
