A breakpoint Pass Count property can be set, meaning only break every n executions of the command. In this step you will add a loop within the Save method and set a Pass Count on a command within this loop.

1.  Ensure that you have ended the last debug session.

2.  Add the highlighted code to the Save method routine as shown:

     Mthroutine Name(Save)
     Define_Com Class(#iiixDepartmentsDataServer.Save) Name(#SaveDepartment)
     #SYS_MSGQ.ClearAll
     #SaveDepartment.executeasync( #xDepartments #io£sts )
     Begin_Loop To(10)
     #std_count += 1
     End_Loop
     . . . .

3.  Compile your web page.

4.  Set a Breakpoint on the assigned command (#std_count += 1).

     Right click and select Breakpoint Properties from the context menu.

     Set the Pass Count to 3 and click OK.

5.  Execute the web page in debug. As before enter 100 to fetch a department record and then click Save. The program will not stop until the third execution.

     Since the break is on the assigned statement (#std_count += 1), which has not yet executed when it breaks, you will find that the value of STD_COUNT is 2.

     Press F5 to continue running. Debug will again stop when STD_COUNT = 3. Repeat and debug stops when STD_COUNT = 8.
