Interface IBreakpointManager

public interface IBreakpointManager
The breakpoint manager manages the collection of breakpoints in the workspace. A breakpoint suspends the execution of a program being debugged. The kinds of breakpoints supported by each debug architecture and the information required to create those breakpoints is defined by each debug architecture. Breakpoint creation is a client responsibility.

Clients interested in breakpoint change notification may register with the breakpoint manager - see IBreakpointListener and IBreakpointsListener
