Hi all,
I am in the middle of debugging which is stopped using "browser()"... in
myfile.R at around line #25.
I was then stuck in a big loop which I want to escape and stop the program
at the line after the big loop.
In the debugging mode, I used
Browse[2]> setBreakpoint("myfile.R#38")
What did it print?
I then typed "c" and "ENTER", thinking that it will continue to execute
until when it comes across line #38 and then stop there...
But it didn't work - it continued the execution until the end of the
function, right at the line "return(results)"...
What happened? How to solve this problem?
One of the complications in R is that you can have multiple copies of a
function in memory. You may (or may not, what did it print??) have set
a breakpoint in one copy, then run another. Or you may have edited that
function after originally sourcing it, and lost the source reference.
An alternative to using setBreakpoint is just to edit a call to
browser() into the function. It's less convenient, but more robust.

Thanks a lot!
