I remember someone telling how you could put a permanent break point
into think c code, I believe that it involved puting an asm{...}
statement into the code. The idea being that the debugger would then
always stop at the point.
Does anyone remember what it was? Jimgreggor@Apple.COM (Greg L. Anderson) (06/20/91)

You don't need to use asm{}: Debugger(); or DebugStr( "\pMessage" ); will do the trick. If you're not running with the THINK C debugger, the above lines will drop you into MacsBug. The THINK debugger distributed with 4.0.5 has trouble with Debugger() and DebugStr() calls if VM is on. -- ----------------- ---------------------- Greg Anderson User Programming Group () "Ponnuki greggor@apple.com Apple Computer, Inc.

Think 'C' has a function call of the simplest sort:
Debugger ()
That takes you to Macsbug. If you include an argument of a /Pascal/-type string, you'll get a display of your own choosing -- I can't remember if it shows up in an alert or if the debugger displays it.

I saw the following (from memory) in a recent MacTutor...
If you put the line
asm(_Debugger)
in your C code, and are running the Think debugger, the code will
halt at that line...
(whoops, make those (_Debugger) into {_Debugger}
