Description

The Get-PSBreakPoint cmdlet gets the breakpoints that are set in the current session. You can use the cmdlet parameters to get particular breakpoints.

A breakpoint is a point in a command or script where execution stops temporarily so that you can examine the instructions. Get-PSBreakpoint is one of several cmdlets designed for debugging PowerShell scripts and commands. For more information about the PowerShell debugger, see about_Debuggers.

Examples

Example 1: Get all breakpoints for all scripts and functions

This command gets all breakpoints set on all scripts and functions in the current session.

Get-PSBreakpoint

Example 2: Get breakpoints by ID

This command gets the breakpoint with breakpoint ID 2.

Get-PSBreakpoint -Id 2

Function         :
IncrementAction  :
Enabled          :
TrueHitCount     : 0
Id               : 2
Script           : C:\ps-test\sample.ps1
ScriptName       : C:\ps-test\sample.ps1

Example 3: Pipe an ID to `Get-PSBreakpoint`

These commands show how to get a breakpoint by piping a breakpoint ID to Get-PSBreakpoint.

$B = `Set-PSBreakpoint` -Script "sample.ps1" -Command "Increment"
$B.Id | Get-PSBreakpoint

The Set-PSBreakpoint cmdlet creates a breakpoint on the Increment function in the Sample.ps1 script and saves the breakpoint object in the $B variable. The Id property of the breakpoint object in the $B variable is piped to the Get-PSBreakpoint cmdlet to display the breakpoint information.

Example 4: Get breakpoints in specified script files

This command gets all of the breakpoints in the Sample.ps1 and SupportScript.ps1 files.

Get-PSBreakpoint -Script "Sample.ps1, SupportScript.ps1"

This command does not get other breakpoints that might be set in other scripts or on functions in the session.

Example 5: Get breakpoints in specified cmdlets

This command gets all Command breakpoints that are set on Read-Host or Write-Host commands in the Sample.ps1 file.

Get-PSBreakpoint -Command "Read-Host, Write-Host" -Script "Sample.ps1"

Example 6: Get Command breakpoints in a specified file

Get-PSBreakpoint -Type Command -Script "Sample.ps1"

This command gets all Command breakpoints in the Sample.ps1 file.

Example 7: Get breakpoints by variable

This command gets breakpoints that are set on the $Index and $Swap variables in the current session.

Get-PSBreakpoint -Variable "Index, Swap"

Example 8: Get all Line and Variable breakpoints in a file

This command gets all line and variable breakpoints in the Sample.ps1 script.

Get-PSBreakpoint -Type Line, Variable -Script "Sample.ps1"

Example 9: Get the breakpoints set in a specific runspace

In this example, a job is started and a breakpoint is set to break when the Set-PSBreakPoint is run. The runspace is stored in a variable and passed to the Get-PSBreakPoint command with the Runspace parameter. You can then inspect the breakpoint in the $breakpoint variable.

Start-Job -ScriptBlock {
    Set-PSBreakpoint -Command Start-Sleep
    Start-Sleep -Seconds 10
}

$runspace = Get-Runspace -Id 1

$breakpoint = Get-PSBreakPoint -Runspace $runspace
