Use this page to set the debugger options for the IDE.
| Item | Description |
|---|---|
|
Multiple evaluators |
Specifies that the appropriate evaluator (C++ or Delphi) is used for each module that is loaded in the process you are debugging. For example, if your Delphi program loads a dll build with the C++ personality, the C++ evaluator is used when debugging into the C++ dll. If you uncheck this option, only the evaluator that is appropriate for the active personality is used. |
|
Debug spawned processes |
Debugs processes that are spawned by the process you are debugging. If not checked, spawned processes are run but are not under control of the debugger. |
|
Ignore non-user breakpoints |
Breaks only at breakpoints you have explicitly set using the IDE. When this option is checked, the native debugger ignores hardcoded int 3 breakpoints as well as breakpoints that result from a call to the Windows API method DebugBreak . Additionally, pressing F12 while a native application is running does not break into the debugger when this option is checked. When this option is off, the debugger stops at a non-user breakpoint (one that was not set using the IDE). When you change this option, the change takes effect immediately. The default value is Off. |
|
Show inherited |
Switches the Debug Inspector dialog Data, Methods, and Properties panes between two modes: one that shows all intrinsic and inherited data members or properties of a class, or one that shows only those declared in the class. For class objects, this lets you determine whether you see members that are part of an ancestor class or only members declared in the immediate class whose object you are inspecting. |
|
Sort by name |
Alphabetically sorts the pages of the Debug Inspector. If this option is not selected, the pages are sorted by declaration order. Note that this option is ignored in Delphi for Win32 projects. |
|
Show fully qualified names |
Shows inherited members using their fully qualified names. |
|
Inspectors stay on top |
Keeps all debugger inspector windows visible even if they are inactive. |
|
Embedded in editor |
Specifies that the Disassembly view comes up as an integral part of the CPU view. This is the default. |
|
Separate dockable window |
Specifies that the Disassembly view comes up as a separate window that you can move around in the IDE. |
|
Debug Symbols Search Path |
Specifies the path to your RSM (Delphi) and TDS (C++) debug files. These files are normally stored with your executable, or dynamic link library (DLL). |
|
Debug Source path |
Global setting that specifies directories where the debuggers look for unit files that cannot be found on the project search path or project source path. Additional directories are searched in the following order:
