Exception Breakpoints
The Breakpoint Manager contains an additional tab to manage exception breakpoints. In the Exception Breakpoints tab, a default exception breakpoint is set:
Disable the checkbox if you want to deactivate the default exception breakpoint.
If an exceptions is thrown during model execution in debug mode, the Interactive Debugger stops at that point and creates an exception breakpoint.

| The automatically created exception breakpoint can be viewed in the Exception Breakpoints tab of the Breakpoint Manager. |

View Dump File
In the service preferences of xUML services running on the Bridge, it is possible to set the flag Dump Context on Error. Each time the xUML service throws an exception, actual call stack and data is logged in a trace file.
These dump information can be viewed with the Interactive Debugger as a sort of exception breakpoint snapshot.
| Select Load Dump File or Load Dump File from URL from the context menu of the service deployment. |
| Select the error dump file to display from the Bridge data directory and click OK ... |
 | ... or copy the dump file URL from the Bridge, provide your credentials and click OK. For more information on where to find the error dumps on a Bridge, refer to xUML Service Dump. |
The Embedded xUML Runtime window opens and shows an additional tab displaying the error dump information. The exception details can be inspected as described in section Exception Breakpoints and in Inspecting the Callstack. The erroneous action script statement is marked in red.
Additionally, the Debugger shows the UML element where the error occurred:
