  • Debugger-set identifying breakpoints after coroutine yield points
    Patent number: 8756572
    Abstract: A debugger can step through target code in a computer program. The debugger can identify a coroutine yield point in the target code, and can obtain identifying information to identify continued processing of a coroutine instance triggered by the operator. The debugger can set a breakpoint at a location for continued stepping after the coroutine yield point. The breakpoint can have a condition of matching the identifying information with runtime information. The debugger can perform the coroutine instance and resume execution of the target code after the coroutine yield point. The debugger can also encounter the breakpoint in the target code, and can determine whether the condition of the breakpoint is met. If so, the debugger can pause execution of the target code at the breakpoint. If not, the debugger can continue execution of the target code past the breakpoint without pausing at the breakpoint.
