Debug Menu Options (Windows Embedded CE 6.0)

1/6/2010

The Debug menu provides a variety of options for you to use to view or control debug information.

The menu options enable you to select options for viewing debug information, to start or stop debugging, to break execution and control breakpoint behavior, or to access other helpful dialog boxes.

Command Description

Windows

Opens a selection of Debug windows. For more information, see Debug Windows.

Start

Starts the Kernel Debugger.

Break all

Stops execution of all programs that run under the debugger. The programs do not exit, and you can resume execution at any time. For more information, see Breakpoints.

Stop Debugging
