So, I just checked and we have this view in Pharo 9 with all halts and breakpoints. We just need to put a global checkbox to (de)activate everything at once (and polish a little bit the view). Le 2020-08-19 10:11, Steven Costiou a écrit :
Hi,
in Pharo 9/NewTools we added the possibility to disable a halt or a breakpoint through a checkbox in the inspector or from a view in the debugger. For example this is an inspector on a test object:
When a halt is disabled this way, it is still in your code but instead of halting it logs into the Transcript. We planned to have a global view somewhere with a global "checkbox" to enable/disable them all. But this will be only for Pharo 9.
But to me it has interest only if you want to keep dormant debugging capabilities in production, that you awake when you have a problem that you need to debug. Otherwise, I would do as Tim suggested and make sure there are no halts in the production image.
Steven.

Hi,
I was bit by a bug in production I couldn't identify and it ended up being a lost halt in the code that was hanging my whole image. So no bug at all, a feature :-)
Is there a way to disable the #halt and breakpoints? This way I could add such an expression (if existent) to my server startup and avoid issues like this.
Regards!
