Pause Point

A Pause Point suspends program execution long enough to refresh debugger data. For example, without setting a pause point, you must wait for the debugger to halt program execution before it can refresh data. Setting a Pause Point, however, lets you pause the debugging session to give the debugger time to refresh the data.
