Go to Definition

The cursor in the editor moves to the place where the identifier is declared. When using "Go to definition" on a remote procedure (RPC/PUBLIC), the ESL editor automatically opens the script containing the procedure definition and sets the cursor to the definition. If the text under the mouse cursor is a valid object name, we open it for editing.

Go to References

A nested editor is displayed with the option to switch between the individual references of the local variable/procedure.

Go to Symbol

A selection box is displayed with filtering of all symbols (local variables, procedure parameters, procedures), after selecting the symbol and pressing the ENTER key, the cursor moves to the symbol definition.

Peek

There are two options here:

• Peek Definition (ALT + F12) - the nested editor is displayed at the position of the local variable/procedure definition.

• Peek References - a nested editor is displayed with a reference to a local variable/procedure, with a list of individual references in the right part.

Editor Settings

Displays the ESL Editor Settings dialog (font and colors).

Insert/Remove Breakpoint

Inserts a breakpoint (script editor - part 3) for the action given by the cursor position. The script execution will be stopped when it reaches the breakpoint.
When the debugging is finished and started again the breakpoints will be activated (only when the row count of the ESL script has not been changed).

Clear All Breakpoints

Clears all breakpoints.

Pause

Interrupts continuous execution of script actions (e.g. after selecting the option Continue, or Go To End ).

Continue

Runs continuous execution of script actions to the nearest breakpoint, end, or an error occurrence (see the parameter Settings).

Step Over

Stepping without nesting.

Step Over + Profiling

Performs a step without nesting and dumps the profiling information about this step. After performing this step, the excel file with the contingent table opens. This file contains detailed information about the executed action. The profiling information is processed and displayed through the tool ESL profiler, which needs installed Microsoft Excel for its functionality.

Warning: Viewing the profiling information may take a few seconds.

Step Into

Stepping with nesting.

Go to Line

Runs continuous execution of script action to the current action, the nearest breakpoint, end, or error occurrence...

Go to End

Runs the continuous execution of script actions to the nearest breakpoint, end, or error occurrence.

Debugger Settings

Sets the parameters for continuous action execution or stepping.

Evaluate Selection

Evaluate any expression that is admissible for the script. Starting expression is given by

• selected text in the script

• local variable or structure item at which the cursor is pointing
