org.eclipse.jdt.debug.core
Interface IJavaMethodEntryBreakpoint

All Superinterfaces:: IAdaptable, IBreakpoint, IJavaBreakpoint, IJavaLineBreakpoint, ILineBreakpoint

public interface IJavaMethodEntryBreakpoint
extends IJavaLineBreakpoint
extends IJavaLineBreakpoint

A method entry breakpoint suspends execution on the first executable line of a method when entered. Entry breakpoints can only be installed in methods that have executable code (i.e. do not work in native methods).

This breakpoint provides a subset of the function provided by IJavaMethodBreakpoint - i.e. break on enter. The implementation of this breakpoint is more efficient than the general method breakpoint, as the implementation is based on line breakpoints and does not require method enter/exit tracing in the target VM.
