WIDE Lower Pane
WIDE Lower Pane is where you can monitor and control your programs:
The Lower Pane divides into three sub-panes:
- Messages
- Run
- Debug
The Messages Pane provides information regarding the last compilation of a program.
In case of a compilation error, you can click the 'Goto Error' button to quickly move the cursor to the erroneous line (this can also be achieved by pressing F4)
The Run Pane provides information regarding the last execution of a program.
You can view the input and output of the program:
If a program seems not to end its execution (infinite loop), click on the 'Suspend execution' button to abort the program:
The Debug Pane allows you to debug your program.
After setting breakpoints in your program code, start the debugger (clicking 'Debug' or pressing F9); The Debug pane will show you a list of all your current program variables and their values:
The debug pane offers you the standard debugging control options:
- Step to the next command (F10)
- Resume Program execution until the next breakpoint (Shift+F10)
- Run-To-Cursor: Resume program execution and pause at the line where the cursor is currently positioned in the editor (Ctrl+F10)
- Show execution point: Move the cursor to the current execution point in the editor
- Abort program (useful for infinite loops) (Ctrl+F6)
