DOCERR: Cannot Break on Condition in PowerStation Debugger

Article ID: 112059

APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft FORTRAN PowerStation 1.0 Standard Edition
  • Microsoft Fortran PowerStation 1.0a for MS-DOS

SUMMARY

The Microsoft FORTRAN Visual Workbench help file incorrectly states that the PowerStation debugger can be used to set breakpoints on certain conditions. This is not correct. The FORTRAN PowerStation version 1.0 and 1.0a debuggers do not support this functionality.

This functionality is supported by FORTRAN PowerStation 32.

MORE INFORMATION

The information below is displayed when you choose FORTRAN Visual Workbench from the Help menu, and then select Debugging Your Application:

The Debugger

   How Do I?                Brief                               Click
   ----------------------------------------------------------------------
   Set breakpoints for      Setting breakpoints to break at
   certain conditions       location, break when an
                            expression has changed, or
                            break at an exported Windows
                            function
                

The information in this section of the help file is not correct. The FORTRAN PowerStation for MS-DOS does not support conditional breakpoints and cannot be used to create applications for Windows.
