Syntax

continue [number]

Parameters

Description

This command continues program execution until the debugger encounters a breakpoint, a signal, an error, or normal process termination.

The number parameter specifies the number of times to subsequently ignore a breakpoint at this location.

Example

In the following example, a continue command resumes process execution after it is suspended by a breakpoint.

(idb) list 195,+7
195 nodeList.append(new IntNode(3)); {static int somethingToReturnTo; somethingToReturnTo++; } 
196 
197 IntNode* newNode2 = new IntNode(4); 
198 nodeList.append(newNode2); {static int somethingToReturnTo; somethingToReturnTo++; } 
199 
200 CompoundNode* cNode2 = new CompoundNode(10.123, 5); 
201 nodeList.append(cNode2); {static int somethingToReturnTo; somethingToReturnTo++; } 
(idb) break 200
Breakpoint 2 at 0x805197a: file src/x_list.cxx, line 200. 
(idb) continue
