• What is the cause and solution for SAP error message XSLT_TOOL409 - Breakpoints outside of the active transformation not deleted ?

  The SAP error message XSLT_TOOL409 indicates that there are breakpoints set in the XSLT transformation that are outside of the active transformation context. This typically occurs when you are debugging an XSLT transformation in the SAP environment, and the debugger encounters breakpoints that are not relevant to the current execution context.
  Cause:
  
  Breakpoints Set in Inactive Code: The breakpoints may have been set in parts of the XSLT code that are not currently being executed. This can happen if the transformation logic has changed, or if the breakpoints were set in a previous version of the XSLT.
  Multiple Transformations: If you are working with multiple XSLT transformations, breakpoints from other transformations may still be active, leading to confusion during debugging.
  Debugging Session Issues: Sometimes, the debugging session may not refresh properly, leading to stale breakpoints being retained.
  
  Solution:
  
  Remove Unused Breakpoints: Go through the XSLT code and manually remove any breakpoints that are not relevant to the current transformation. You can do this by navigating to the breakpoints in the debugger and deleting them.
  Restart the Debugging Session: Close the current debugging session and restart it. This can help clear any stale breakpoints that are causing the issue.
  Check Transformation Logic: Ensure that the transformation logic is correct and that the breakpoints are set in the active parts of the code that you want to debug.
  Update the XSLT: If you have made changes to the XSLT, ensure that you are working with the latest version and that the breakpoints are set in the correct locations.
  
  Related Information:
