Run the program and execute the next statement
To run the program and execute the next statement (Step Into)
The debugger executes the next statement, then pauses execution in break mode. If the next statement is a function call, the debugger steps into that function, then pauses execution at the beginning of the function.
If you step into a nested function call, the debugger steps into the most deeply nested function. For example, on the line of code Fun(Fun2);
the debugger steps into the function Fun2
, then pauses.
To step into a specific function
– or –
Use the Step Into, Step Over, or Run To Cursor command to advance the program execution to that point.
The debugger executes the function call and pauses execution at the beginning of the selected function.
Step Into Specific Function works for any number of nesting levels. You can also sometimes use Step Into Specific Function to step into a member function; for example, MemberFn
in the line of C++ code CMyClass::MemberFn();
