Description Eugene Kuleshov CLA 2004-02-26 09:36:32 EST 
Present user experience for setting breakpoints requires opening source code
editor. There are some situations when it is not possible to open editor or
runtime code is different from the code in the editor.

So, it would be very useful feature to be able to put a method level breakpoint
by selecting method in "Outline View", "Hierarchy view" or even using some
custom search dialog, perhaps somehow similar to "Open Type" but with the
ability to see methods.

Context menu in navigator/outline - "Toggle Method Breakpoint".
Comment 2 Eugene Kuleshov CLA 2004-02-26 10:04:29 EST 
Ops. I don't noticed that. However can that view be synchronized with the break
point view? Right now it is quite difficult to see if there are any breakpoints
on that method is set. Another interesting option would be to add some kind of
breakpoint label decorator.

My primary concern for these method breakpoints is to add some
condition/scripting logic, so I have to open breakpoint properties.
Comment 3 Darin Wright CLA 2004-02-26 10:11:23 EST 
I'll re-open as a feature request. Note, that new feature requests at this 
point are unliley to happen in 3.0.
Comment 4 Darin Wright CLA 2004-02-26 16:16:22 EST 
Deferred for now.
Comment 5 Eugene Kuleshov CLA 2004-07-23 11:56:35 EDT 
Any chance to get this feature implemented in 3.0.1 or 3.1 release? Thank you.
Comment 6 Jared Burns CLA 2004-10-29 17:09:55 EDT 
I don't understand what the request is here. Is it that you want to get to a method breakpoint's 
properties from the Outline view?
Comment 7 Darin Wright CLA 2004-10-29 17:11:39 EDT 
(I think it is to decorate methods in the outliner with breakpoint overlays - 
for methods with method entry/exit breakpoints).
Comment 8 Eugene Kuleshov CLA 2004-10-29 17:19:38 EDT 
Darin, that is right. I'd also suggest to show watchpoints for fields too.
Comment 9 Darin Wright CLA 2004-11-09 13:15:45 EST 
marking as dup of older bug.
