PhpStorm 6.0.1 Web Help

For a breakpoint, you can configure the following properties:

PhpStorm suggests the following ways to change the breakpoints properties:

To configure actions, suspend policy and dependencies of a breakpoint
  1. Do one of the following:
    • Open the Breakpoint properties dialog box, and select the desired breakpoint in the list.
    • Right-click a breakpoint in the editor, and choose Edit on the context menu:

      edit_breakpoint

    • In the Favorites tool window, select the desired breakpoint, and click edit1.

    Note

    Note that pop-up window shows less options than the Breakpoints dialog box. To show hidden options, click More.

  2. Define the actions to be performed by PhpStorm on hitting breakpoint:
    • To display the reaching of a breakpoint as a text message in the debugging console, select the check check box Log message to console.

      To evaluate an expression in the context of a breakpoint and display its value in the debugging console, check the option Log evaluated expression, and enter a valid expression in the option field.

      This feature lets you obtain information about your running application without having to suspend its execution.

    • To set a breakpoint the current one depends on, select it from the Depends on drop-down list.
    • Enable suspending an application upon reaching a breakpoint by selecting the Suspend check box, and then select one of the option buttons to specify the way a running program will be paused. For more information on the Suspend options, refer to Breakpoints dialog reference.
    • To set the break condition, enable condition by selecting the appropriate check box, and enter the desired expression in the Condition field.

      If the expression evaluates to true, the user-selected actions are performed. If the evaluation result is false, the breakpoint does not produce any effect.
