Can I set breakpoints in MaxIDE and Step Through

How do I do this, I cant find any info

use debugstop:

while not keyhit(KEY_ESCAPE)
debugstop
wend

I prefer debuglog.

Bmx will crash on its own... so you don't need the stop... :o)

use debuglog to send messages to the debug stream, by all means. But if you want to pause a program then use debugstop.

Buttons at the top (next to build) allow you to 'step in', 'step out' and 'step through' your code.

I use debugstop when I want to now the value of custom types just before you get a message like 'array index out of bounds' or whatever.


This is also true ;)

Bad thing is, that the default ide does not support "continue" ... strangely, BLide supports it.
Definitely a lack with debugstop atm.

I think you click on the rocket button to continue in the default IDE.

Yep, the "Build and Run" toolbar icon also acts as a "Continue" when you are stopped in debug mode.

One of those other hidden features of Max ;-)
