Re^2: Setting break point for particular condition in the subroutine

This subroutine is called from other subroutine which is intern called from my perl script. So setting break point b 123 $cmd =~ /INITIAL/i throws error Line 118 not breakable. because my script does not have those many lines.

From the google docs I found the below statement b subname [condition] Can we use this in anyway?

Yes, that's why you need to figure out the actual line number. "123" was just an example. You can determine the line number with `l Engine::_Execute` ... lines that are breakable will show with a colon (:) after the line number in the debugger. Hence, if you see this: `100 sub Engine::Execute 101 { 102 103: foreach (@commands) 104 { 105: $cmd = $_; 106: if($cmd =~ /INITIAL/i) 107 {` [download] ... then you would type `b 106 $cmd =~ /INITIAL/i` Again, these numbers are just examples. You need to determine the actual line number for yourself with `l Engine::_Execute`!	[reply] [d/l] [select]
