Point

Use

Resets and displays the source file pointer within the current source file.

Command Syntax

POINT [+n|–n|n]

where:

n
Is the line number you specify

Description

The POINT command relocates the source file pointer within the current source file and prints that line.

If a sign is specified, the debugger relocates the source file pointer to the line that is n lines before (–) or after (+) the current source file pointer. Otherwise, the debugger relocates the source file pointer to the line specified by n. The debugger then prints out the new pointed to line. If n is omitted, the source file pointer is reset to the current execution point, and that line is printed.

Example

In the following example, the source file pointer is reset to line 116 and displayed.

CodeWatch> POINT 116
  116:  call read input (n);

In this example, the source file pointer is reset to two lines before the current source file pointer, and that line is displayed.

CodeWatch> POINT -2 
  114:  put skip (2);
