int SetBreakOnProtectionErrors (int newState);
If you enable debugging, LabWindows/CVI uses information it gathers from compiling your source code to make extensive run-time checks to protect your program. When it encounters a protection error at run-time, LabWindows/CVI displays a dialog box and suspends execution.
The following lists examples of protection errors.
You can use SetBreakOnProtectionErrors to prevent LabWindows/CVI from displaying the dialog box and suspending execution when it encounters a protection error. In general, it is better not to disable the Break on protection errors feature. Nevertheless, you might want to disable the option temporarily around a line of code for which LabWindows/CVI erroneously reports a protection error. This function changes the setting for the thread that calls this function.
If you disable run-time checking, SetBreakOnProtectionErrors has no effect. LabWindows/CVI never reports run-time errors when you disable run-time checking. Run-time checking is enabled when you set the debugging level in the Build Options dialog box of the Workspace window to Standard or Extended, and select Build»Configuration»Debug.

Note If an invalid memory access generates a processor exception, LabWindows/CVI reports the error and terminates your program regardless of the debugging level or the state of the Break on Protection Errors feature. |
