This command sets an execution breakpoint at a specific location.
You can also specify a conditional breakpoint by using an if statement
that stops only when the conditional expression evaluates to true.
Note
Breakpoints that are set within a shared object are deleted when the shared object is unloaded.
Use set breakpoint to control the automatic
breakpoint behavior when using this command.

Where:
dDisables the breakpoint immediately after creation.
pSpecifies whether or not the resolution of an unrecognized breakpoint location results in a pending breakpoint being created.
filenameSpecifies the file.
locationSpecifies the location:
line_numis a line number
