Debugger dumps

Hello, Is there a way to trigger Debugger stack dumps manually? I though it could be useful to put in Zap’s heap free code etc. |

Not at the moment, no. I’ll have a think about the best way to extend the API to allow programs to use it. |

Great. It has been a big help debugging my code along with Reporter, and maybe Fortify now as well. Moving out of the RMA into a Dynamic Area also worked wonders for me, as then it aborts if I run off the end of my block :-) |

It would also be nice to be able to trigger a dump when you Alt-Break a program. There are a couple of time yesterday where it could have provided a hint at were to look for the problem. |

+1 Sometimes when something gets its panties in a twist and needs to be smacked down with the sledgehammer, it’s useful too have an idea of what actually went wrong. |

[and for bonus points, have it capable of knowing when it’s a BASIC program to report the function/line number] |
