With the Visual Micro Serial Debugger you can use the advanced Break and Trace features easily, to conditionally control your debugging session. Information and Links Below.....

In this video we explore Conditional Breakpoints, Hit Counters, and Time based Breakpoints.

Often you need to control what conditions cause a debugging action to trigger, so you can output data or stop your program only in a certain scenario. With the Serial Debugger you can use Conditional Expressions, as well as Hit Counters, and Millisecond Counters, to quickly and easily allow you to debug the scenario you need, without having to step all the way to the problem.

GDB Tools for Micro-controllers often don't support the Hit Counters, and can often affect the speed at which your board executes your program. With the Serial Debugger these problems and wiring headaches are a thing of the past....
