Changing the initial breakpoint on debug startup
When the debugger starts, it automatically sets an initial (temporary) breakpoint on the first statement in main(). You can change where this initial breakpoint is set, or even remove it completely.
- select your project in Project Explorer
- click the "Edit debug configuration" button on the toolbar (a bug with a question mark overlayed)
- in the Debug Configurations dialog, select the Debug or Release configuration for your project
- click on the Debugger tab
- To change where the initial breakpoint is set, change the symbol in "Stop on startup at"
- To stop an initial breakpoint being set, uncheck the "Stop on startup at" checkbox
- Apply and debug your project
