5.3.18 Procedure for changing the value of a plug-in output property during debugging
You can change the values of plug-in output properties during debugging. By changing an output property to an arbitrary value after executing or skipping a plug-in, you can see how different property values affect the processing of subsequent steps and the flow transitions.
Note that you can only change the values of output properties if Interrupt After Each Step is selected as the break setting.
The method of changing the output property value differs according to whether a step skips or executes plug-in processing.
To change the value of an output property during debugging (when executing plug-in processing):
-
In the Flow view, select a step that is in Interrupted status.
-
In the Debug view, select Execute the plug-in processing from the Execution Settings list box.
-
Select the Interrupt after the plug-in processing check box.
-
Click Rerun.
The step is paused after the plug-in processing is executed.
-
In the Debug view, specify the desired values for the output properties.
-
Click Rerun.
To change the value of an output property during debugging (when skipping plug-in processing):
-
In the Flow view, select a step that is in Interrupted status.
-
In the Debug view, select Do not execute the plug-in processing from the Execution Settings list box.
-
In the Debug view, specify the desired values for the output properties.
-
Click Rerun.
