Be aware of the following when using scripts with breakpoints:
You must not assign a script to a breakpoint that has sub-breakpoints. If you do, the debugger attempts to execute the script for each sub-breakpoint. If this happens, an error message is displayed.
Take care with the commands you use in a script that is attached to a breakpoint. For example, if you use the quit command in a script, the debugger disconnects from the target when the breakpoint is hit.
If you put the continue command at the end of a script, this has the same effect as setting the Continue Execution checkbox on the Breakpoint Properties dialog box.
