Use the Create Breakpoint dialog box to set breakpoints:
Right-click in the gray area to the left of a line to see the context menu.
Select Create Breakpoint... to display the Create Breakpoint dialog box. an example is shown in Figure 7.1.
Use the Class field to specify the type of breakpoint to set. A system breakpoint is the default choice.
Breakpoint classes are not listed if they are not supported by the Debug Agent.
The breakpoint Class options available depend on:
hardware capability
Debug Agent
HSD/RSD status, for example if RSD is not available,
the field shows Standard Breakpoint
the System_Stop setting specified
in your board file
whether you are using tracepoints.
Depending on the type of breakpoint, you cannot edit an existing breakpoint where the choice is restricted by the Debug Agent. In this case, you must clear the breakpoint before you can set a new breakpoint at the same location.
