  • Key Concepts: 
    An event breakpoint is a debugging tool in SAP Workbench Tools that allows users to pause the execution of a program at a certain point. This allows users to inspect the program’s state and variables at that point in time. Event breakpoints can be set for specific events, such as when a certain variable is changed or when a certain line of code is reached.
    
    How to use it: 
    To use an event breakpoint, open the program you want to debug in the SAP Workbench Tools editor. Then, select the line of code where you want to pause the program and click on the “Set Event Breakpoint” button. This will pause the program when it reaches that line of code. You can then inspect the program’s state and variables at that point in time.
    
    Tips & Tricks: 
    When setting an event breakpoint, make sure to select the correct line of code. If you select the wrong line, the program may not pause at the desired point. Additionally, make sure to disable any other breakpoints before setting an event breakpoint, as multiple breakpoints can cause unexpected behavior.
