Set breakpoints for the built-in debugger.

@var{func} is the name of a function on the current @code{path}.  When
already in debug mode the @var{func} argument can be omitted and the current
function will be used.  Breakpoints at subfunctions are set with the scope
operator @samp{>}.  For example, If @file{file.m} has a subfunction
@code{func2}, then a breakpoint in @code{func2} can be specified by
@code{file>func2}.

@var{line} is the line number at which to break.  If @var{line} is not
specified, it defaults to the first executable line in the file
@file{func.m}.  Multiple lines can be specified in a single command; when
function syntax is used, the lines may also be passed as a single vector
argument (@code{[@var{line1}, @var{line2}, @dots{}]}).

@var{condition} is any Octave expression that can be evaluated in the code
context that exists at the breakpoint.  When the breakpoint is encountered,
@var{condition} will be evaluated, and execution will stop if
@var{condition} is true.  If @var{condition} cannot be evaluated, for
example because it refers to an undefined variable, an error will be thrown.
 Expressions with side effects (such as @code{y++ > 1}) will alter
variables, and should generally be avoided.  Conditions containing quotes
(@samp{"}, @samp{'}) or comment characters (@samp{#}, @samp{%}) must be
enclosed in quotes.  (This does not apply to conditions entered from the
editor's context menu.)  For example:

@example
dbstop in strread at 209 if 'any (format == "%f")'
@end example

The form specifying @var{event} does not cause a specific breakpoint at a
given function and line number.  Instead it causes debug mode to be entered
when certain unexpected events are encountered.  Possible values are

@table @code
@item error
Stop when an error is reported.  This is equivalent to specifying
both @code{debug_on_error (true)} and @code{debug_on_interrupt (true)}.

@item caught error
Stop when an error is caught by a try-catch block (not yet implemented).

@item interrupt
Stop when an interrupt (@kbd{Ctrl-C}) occurs.

@item naninf
Stop when code returns a non-finite value (not yet implemented).

@item warning
Stop when a warning is reported.  This is equivalent to specifying
@code{debug_on_warning (true)}.
@end table

The events @code{error}, @code{caught error}, and @code{warning} can all be
followed by a string specifying an error ID or warning ID@.  If that is
done, only errors with the specified ID will cause execution to stop.  To
stop on one of a set of IDs, multiple @code{dbstop} commands must be
issued.

Breakpoints and events can be removed using the @code{dbclear} command with
the same syntax.

It is possible to save all breakpoints and restore them at once by issuing
the commands @code{bp_state = dbstatus; @dots{}; dbstop (bp_state)}.

The optional output @var{rline} is the real line number where the breakpoint
was set.  This can differ from the specified line if the line is not
executable.  For example, if a breakpoint attempted on a blank line then
Octave will set the real breakpoint at the next executable line.

When a file is re-parsed, such as when it is modified outside the GUI,
all breakpoints within the file are cleared.

@table @var
@item func
Function name as a string variable.  When already in debug mode this
argument can be omitted and the current function will be used.

Line number from which to remove a breakpoint.  Multiple lines may be given
as separate arguments or as a vector.

@item event
An event such as @code{error}, @code{interrupt}, or @code{warning}
(@pxref{XREFdbstop,,dbstop} for details).

When called without a line number specification all breakpoints in the named
function are cleared.

If the requested line is not a breakpoint no action is performed.

Report the location of active breakpoints.

When called with no input or output arguments, print the list of all
functions with breakpoints and the line numbers where those breakpoints are
set.

If a function name @var{func} is specified then only report breakpoints
for the named function and its subfunctions.

The optional return argument @var{bp_list} is a struct array with the
following fields.

@table @asis
@item name
The name of the function with a breakpoint.  A subfunction, say @code{func2}
within an m-file, say @file{file.m}, is specified as @code{file>func2}.

@item file
The name of the m-file where the function code is located.

@item line
The line number with the breakpoint.

@item cond
The condition that must be satisfied for the breakpoint to be active, or
the empty string for unconditional breakpoints.
@end table

@c Note: When @code{dbstatus} is called from the debug prompt within a function,
@c the list of breakpoints is automatically trimmed to the breakpoints in the
@c current function.
If @code{dbstop if error} is true but no explicit IDs are specified, the
return value will have an empty field called @qcode{"errs"}.  If IDs are
specified, the @code{errs} field will have one row per ID@.  If
@code{dbstop if error} is false, there is no @qcode{"errs"} field.
The @qcode{"warn"} field is set similarly by @code{dbstop if warning}.
