 | SyntaxDEBUG; DiscussionThe DEBUG intrinsic calls Debug from an interactive program. The intrinsic call acts as a hard-coded breakpoint. Execution of the calling program is halted, and the Debug prompt is displayed. If the call is made from a batch program, it is ignored. Refer to the MPE/iX Intrinsics Reference Manual for additional discussion of this intrinsic. Condition CodesThis intrinsic does not return meaningful condition code values. ExampleThe following example is a code fragment from a Pascal program. It declares DEBUG as an intrinsic and then calls it. 
   PROCEDURE call_debug;
      procedure debug; intrinsic;
   BEGIN
      debug;
   END;
