How to enable breakpoints?

[RaelB 4]

Hello,

 

I have opened an old open source project in the IDE (10.3), and breakpoints seem to have been disabled for this project.

 

 

Q1. How can I re-enable breakpoints?

In "Linking" I have set "Debug Information" = True, and "Map file" = Detailed. What other setting is relevant here?

 

Q2. Another thing is that whenever an error occurs, the IDE goes straight to CPU view. How do I revert to the usual behaviour of going to the line of code where the error occurred?

 

Thanks

Rael

Sometimes this happens to me as well but then I realize I had a file open from a different project or the line of code was excluded because of conditional compilation of some sort. Other times, the background compiler that does syntax checking just hasn't realized the line of code is able to be debugged; in that case, I just do a project Build All and it often solves the problem.
