Put breakpoint programmatically

[jatinpatel1489@gmail.com]

Hello folk,

Is there any way to put breakpoint programmatically or puase VI on certain occasion?

You are most probably looking for a conditional probe: Right-click on a wire > Custom probe > ...

In Help sreach for "probes" and then select the "creating custom".

Happy VI-ing!

No! But you can suspend a callee VI programatically. Run the attached VIs & see.

Just a note to anyone who is trying to do this programmatically:

Traverse the block diagram via scripting for the SubVI node you're interesting in attaching a breakpoint to.

Then write to its "Breakpoint Status" property.

I can also confirm that this can be done while the VI is running, and that the property exists on many, if not all, block diagram nodes.

This should be a Method, actually! 

Set BP

Enable BP

Disable BP

Clear BP
