How to view all the breakpoints in eclipse? - eclipse

I am new to eclipse and I am unable to view all the breakpoints that I have placed. I even tried Window --> Show View --> Breakpoints but that is also not working.

As other users have suggested, to view all breakpoints : Window-> Show View -> Breakpoints.
To delete them, there are three ways:
select the breakpoint & click on the cross button displayed in the same view.
select the breakpoint, right click & select remove. (You can also temporarily disable it & remove all the breakpoints from this menu.)
Go to the breakpoint in your file & double-click it.

Here is what worked for me, just today, Run-> Remove All Breakpoints

On the top-right corner, there is a search bar(Quick Access).
You can search for breakpoints there and select breakpoints from options.
All the breakpoints will be listed down.

You can remove all breakpoints by following below steps. Go to
Run -> Remove All Breakpoints.
This will remove all breakpoints.

Go to Windows->Show View->(Others)->(Debug)->Breakpoints->unchecked all debug points
and unchecked all debug points which you have checked, start in debug mode again. It worked for me.

For Oxygen.3a I use:
Window > Perspective > Open perspective > debug, and it shows the breakpoints window by default.
Then ALT + SHIFT + Q, B toggles the window (or Window > Show view > Breakpoints)

For Windows: Press Alt + Shift + Q, B

On Bottom there are many tabs like console ,Development Mode etc like wise
Break Point also there you find all toggle break points.

Right click on the Debug icon and click Reset. I hope it Helps.

This shows all the breakpoints in the project.
Window > Perspective > Open perspective > debug, and it shows the breakpoints window by default.

Go to Run > Remove All Breakpoints

Can't see project explorer in STM32CubeIDE [duplicate]

Suddenly my project explorer window has disappeared from Eclipse. I try selecting Windows > Show View > Project Explorer, but nothing happens. What can I do?
Try Window --> Perspective --> Reset Perspective.... Remember that your own settings, if any, will also be reset.
Try to close Eclipse IDE and reopen it and
click on window->show view->project explorer
For me it was like this...
Window->Show View->Other->General->Project Explorer
Or
Window->Open Perspective->Other->Java (default)
Open Eclipse IDE
Enter "Project Explorer" on Quick Access (Search text box).
Either select from drop-down or press Enter
Window -> Perspective -> Reset
Reset the IDE
Window -> Show View -> Project Explorer
Select Window->Show View, if it is not shown there then select other. Under General you can see Project Explorer.
If none of the above solutions work, Try Window-> New Window
I had encountered the same problem as well. The following solution helped me to get over it:
Window -> Show View -> Package Explorer.
You can use the shortcut as well. It's Alt + Shift + Q, P
Using the latest Luna upgrade.
The only solution that worked was Window >> New Window.
It's very easy to lose that critical bar.
If you are on either Eclipse or Spring tool suite then follow the below steps.
(1) Go to 'Window' on the top of the editor. Click on it
(2) Select show view. You should see an option 'Project Explorer'. Click on it.
You should be able to do it.
Close the current perspective:
Reopen it using Window -> Open perspective.
i had also encountered this issue.
.
This Solution worked for me....
windows->navigation->maximize active View or Editor(ctrl + M)
.
in the screen you can see on left side navigation menus ... now click on those buttons one by one ....you will get your solution...
Try changing the perspective to JavaEE and then check.
Not sure if this is problem but, this ticked me off for a while since I did not realize what was happening at first - maybe this will help others.
Its not really a problem, just the way Eclipse works. (I'm use to Visual studio)
Its all about Perspectives!
I set up an (existing) PHP project in eclipse(neon) and then tried to configure and run debug. A Popup "Confirm Perspective Switch" is shown - I selected "Yes", not realizing what it actually does. The "perspective" then changes and you no longer see the project explorer anywhere. You cant "open" the project explorer window from top nav > window > show view, since its no longer there (which is BS, it should show something that gives you indication of current and other "perspectives" - at least for newbie.) No where now does it give project explore options.
Now you must change the "perspective" back from debug to PHP (at least in in my case).
This can be done a couple ways, easiest is from the icons on right top right side side. One icon would be the "bug", and next to it is the PHP icon. Just click the icon "perspective" you want. The other way is from top nav bar > window > Perspective > open Perspective, then select PHP. Could they hide this any deeper?
I know this is likely second nature to those who have used eclipse for a while, but was frustrating to me (on day one) till I figured out what was going on.
Please Select window in tool bar
Move to show view
Select project explorer
applied the same method to reset the perspective, no changes appaired then I restart the Eclipse IDE which was fine then.

Netbean 8 Variables Window, Watches Window, Breakpoints Window, Call Stack Window, Output Window don't auto hide after debug

Netbean 8: Variables Window, Watches Window, Breakpoints Window, Call Stack Window, Output Window don't auto hide after debug. How i can fix this problem. Thanks.
Click Window and choose Reset Windows from the menu.
After doing this, the debug windows should auto-hide. I recommend taking a screenshot before doing the reset in case other customizations you made are inadvertently lost.
Click on Minimize Window Group which is on top right corner of variable window or other windows. If you have maximized it then after debug you need to click on Minimize Window Group after debug.
I figured this out for the Output window.. if you open that view, you'll see an icon on the left-hand side which says "Ant Settings" when hovered over. Click that, and it will open the 'Options --> Java' dialog.
In that dialog, select the 'Always Show Output' option. Now anytime you build your project (etc) that Output view will pop up, and when you click back in the Editor it will auto-hide.

Is it possible to save a set of breakpoints?

I have a set of breakpoints which I used for debugging one issue. When I want to debug something else, these breakpoints are annoying, so I need to disable/delete them. However, I feel that I might want to be able to recreate the first set of breakpoints later.
Is it possible to save all currently active breakpoints so that you can switch between different sets of breakpoints with just one operation?
If I have 30 breakpoints, it would be very tedious to recreate/reenable them all manually.
In Eclipse (debug perspective -> breakpoints) select all the breakpoints, right click, export breakpoints!
You can use breakpoint working sets - see eclipse help.
If you can't find the Breakpoints tab, open it on: Window > Show View > Breakpoints.
Then, as said before: Ctrl+A to select all breakpoints > right click > Export Breakpoints....

why can't I set up a breakpoint in eclipse?

For some odd reason, I can't use breakpoints in my eclipse project. All breakpoints that I set have a diagonal line on them, above the dot in the respective line (on the left margin of the window), as if they are blocked. When I run in debug mode, the breakpoints are ignored. Any ideas?
You've probably just pressed "Skip All Breakpoints" in the Breakpoint view - simply press it again.
Default key bindings are: Ctrl + Alt + B.
This doesn't exactly answer the OPs question, but when trying to double click to add break points, I was getting messages stating "this feature is not enabled".
I had to right click on the break point bar and select "Breakpoint Types" -> "C/C++ Breakpoints" instead of "Default". Then it worked fine.
in python, I had to go to:
windows->perspective->Open Perspective->Debug
then select the Breakpoints tab and make sure the zero with the slash (skip all breakpoints) is not selected (you can also use Ctrl-Alt-B to toggle it).
Open Debug View
Open Breakpoint Perspective
Right-click all breakpoints there
Press Enable
My "toggle breakpoint" and other menu options were disabled. I restarted Eclipse (Kepler SR1) and they came back enabled. I could set breakpoints again!
In my case, I'd edited my code during debugging, adding a null-check so I could place a breakpoint to stop execution only when a certain value was null. I couldn't add a breakpoint because the line of code in question was not present in the running application.
In Java, certain code changes can be woven in as soon as the file is saved, so in my case, remembering to save the changes was enough to enable placing a breakpoint.
For changes that can't be woven in, the application must be restarted before the new lines of code will be present.
In my case, I opened up the Breakpoints view, clicked 'remove all breakpoints' and then toggled the 'skip all breakpoints' option off, then on. This allowed me to set breakpoints again. This was after a restart of eclipse failed to help.
I was having a simular issue, for me the standard code-editor changed after installing a new plugin from Marketplace. Apparently the Plugin thought to change the default-editor for a lot of file-types, not only the one I installed it for. The new editor did not allow setting breakpoints but I hadn't known it changed at the time. When I right-clicked my source-file in the Project-explorer I saw under open-with the new editor listed on top. When I opened with the previous editor, everything went back to normal.
