Figure 229: Action Point >
At Location Dialog Box
Setting Breakpoints and Barriers
When you suppress action points, you disable them.After you suppress an
action point, TotalView changes the symbol it uses within the Source Panes
line number area. In all cases, the icon’s color will be lighter. If you have
suppressed action points, you cannot update existing action points or create
new ones.
You can make previously suppressed action points active and allow the creation
of new ones by reselecting the Action Point > Suppress All command.

Setting Breakpoints on Classes and Virtual and
Overloaded Functions
The Action Point > At Location dialog box lets you set breakpoints on all
functions within a class or on a virtual function. The All Methods in Class
and All Virtual Functions and Overrides check boxes tell TotalView that it
should set multiple breakpoints. Each place that TotalView sets a breakpoint
will have its own breakpoint icon. For example, if there are ten class
functions, each will have its own unique breakpoint.
TotalView tells you that the action point is set on a virtual function or a class
in the Action Points tab. If you dive on the action point in this tab, TotalView
brings up its Ambiguous Function dialog box so that you can select which it
should display. You may want to select the Show full path names check box
if you can’t tell which you want from the function’s signature.
If a function name is overloaded, the debugger sets a breakpoint on each
of these functions.
If you only want breakpoints on some functions, you will need to select the
breakpoint and then get to the Properties Window. Do this either by rightclicking
on the breakpoint and press Properties or by selecting the Action
Point > Properties command, and then press Addresses. (See Figure 230 on
page 358.)
You can now individually add or remove breakpoints.
