N

Bypasses a specified number of break points.

Syntax

N{n}

Syntax Element

n determines the number of break points to be bypassed.

Operation

The N command allows you to bypass break points. The break message and all traced variables are displayed at each break point.

The N command alone resets the debugger allowing breaks to again occur at all qualifying break points.

Single-stepping

By setting N0 and E1 you can single-step though a code module. When single-stepping, the debugger ignores all comment lines, including any NULL statement, REM statement (or equivalent) or any complier directive (for example, an EQUATE statement).

Examples

*N4

Allows four execution breaks to pass before returning control to the debugger.

*N

Returns the debugger to normal operation, stopping at every execution break.
