The following describes the process of creating a breakpoint.

Methods in breakpoint creation

When the module that is needed to bind a breakpoint is loaded, the session debug manager (SDM) calls the following methods:

  1. IDebugPendingBreakpoint2::Enable

  2. IDebugPendingBreakpoint2::Virtualize

  3. IDebugPendingBreakpoint2::CanBind

    Note

    CanBind is called only when a user makes a breakpoint from the Breakpoints window.

  4. IDebugPendingBreakpoint2::Bind

  5. IDebugPendingBreakpoint2::EnumBoundBreakpoints
