Scilab Function

setbpt - setting breakpoints

Calling Sequence

setbpt(macro-name [,line-num])

Parameters

Description

setbpt interactively inserts a breakpoint in the line number line-num (default value is 1) of the function macro-name

When reaching the breakpoint, Scilab evaluates the specified line , prints the number of the line and the name of the function. If the function is not compiled ( see comp ) the line is printed on the screen. Then Scilab goes into a pause mode in which the user can check current values. The pause is exited with resume or abort. Redefining the function does not clear the breakpoints, the user must explicitly delete breakpoints using delbpt. The maximum number of functions with breakpoints enabled must be less than 20 and the maximum number of breakpoints is set to 100.
