I'd like to group my breakpoints in something like group 1, group 2, and be able to activate / deactivate groups simply, without adding / removing everything. I know how to toggle all breakpoints on/off.
My use case is the following: group 2 contains breakpoints that are hit very often, but I'm only interested in them after an event in group 1 occurs. So I'd like to run my app with group 1 on and group 2 off, and when group 1 is hit, turn group 2 on. I don't want to press play hundreds of times for events that happen in group 2 before group 1 is hit, and I don't want to readd all breakpoints in group 2 after group 1 is hit, and remove all of them at the end of the session.
Currently, I'm putting all my breakpoints in group 2 in something like:
if globalFlag {
print("group 2 breakpoint")
}
and I'm setting globalFlag to true when group 1 is hit, and putting breakpoints within the condition.
Is there's a better way?
It looks like you can do this using the -N (Name) command. I've been debugging some non trivial code and it would be very useful to enable certain groups of breakpoints at different stages of debugging. I ran across this blog entry that seems to confirm: https://volonbolon-blog.tumblr.com/post/126507197542/grouping-breakpoints
Once you've named your breakpoints you and enable, disable and delete each group by using the name you've specified.
