FIX: PR1428 Illegal Breakpoint Error Profiling P-code (87346)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft Source Profiler for OS/2 1.2
- Microsoft Source Profiler for MS-DOS 1.2
This article was previously published under Q87346
The information in this article is included in the documentation starting
with Visual C++ 5.0. Look there for future revisions.
SYMPTOMS
Running the Microsoft Source Profiler PROFILE command in the MS-DOS or
Microsoft Windows operating system on an application that contains P-code
causes the following error:
PROFILE: fatal error PR1428: A user-defined breakpoint was found
at location
CAUSE
The fatal error PR1428 is generated because the P-code breakpoint
instruction is implemented as Interrupt 03h, which cannot be profiled (as
stated on pages 73 and 75 of the Source Profiler "User's Guide" for version
1.2). Using Interrupt 03h in an application conflicts with the way that the
Source Profile itself uses Interrupt 03h.
RESOLUTION
To avoid this fatal error, profile the application after removing all the P-
code from the profiled region.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft Source Profiler
version 1.2 for MS-DOS and Windows. This problem was corrected in Microsoft
Source Profiler version 1.3.
