What is the option of the Checkpoint in the new ABAP Debugger?

How different is it from Watchpoint & Breakpoint.

Thanks for all the replies,I will have to use Checkpoint at debug mode to find out the exact purpose of the same & see the difference between Breakpoint,watchpoint & checkpoint.

Hi Sneha,

Check point :

lets talk with an example.. Imagine u are calculating some value of the variable i, and if u would like to know the 100th instance of it, then u can use the check point and save the value 100 there. this will help u from pressing f5 for 100 (instead press f8) times to reach tht debugging point. At i = 100, you can resume to debugging.

reward if useful.

That is wrong, the checkpoint functionality requires source code changes, like the BREAK-POINT statement.

Please read the debug documentation for details.
