Patent ID: 7225431

Claim:
A method for setting a breakpoint, comprising: selecting mapping indicia correlating to the breakpoint; returning a memory address corresponding to the mapping indicia; selecting a code module associated with execution in at least one second execution environment, of at least one first execution environment and the at least one second execution environment, wherein the second execution environment is different from the first execution environment, and wherein the selected code module contains the selected mapping indicia; determining if the selected code module is loaded into the at least one second execution environment from the at least one first execution environment; setting the breakpoint in the at least one second execution environment at the returned memory address if the second execution environment contains the selected code module; generating breakpoint indicia associated with setting the breakpoint if the second execution environment contains the selected code module; and recording the breakpoint indicia, wherein the breakpoint indicia comprises information employable for loading the module to at least one second execution environment.
