<h2>Controlling Program Execution</h2>
<p>This section explains how to use breakpoints, breakpoint actions, and watchpoints to manipulate execution of your program in the Carbide™ IDE:</p>
<ul>
<li><a href="breakpoints.htm">Breakpoints</a>—halt program execution on a line of source code that you specify. You can set a breakpoint that always halts program execution, or you can set a breakpoint that halts program execution if a condition that you specify is true.</li>
<li><a href="working_with_debugger.htm">Breakpoint actions</a>—perform a task during program execution on a line of source
code that you specify. Breakpoint actions can play sounds, run scripts, log data, and perform other operations.</li>
<li><a href="watchpoints.htm">Watchpoints</a>—halt program execution after a location in memory changes
value</li>
</ul>
<p>After you set these items in your source code, you start a debugging session to use them. As program execution arrives at each of these items, the debugger can halt execution, perform a task, or update data.</p>
