Profiles

Using ELOas debugger profiles

The upper right area of the main ELOas debugger window contains a drop-down menu with the ELOas debugger profiles. This drop-down menu contains 10 profiles. Each profile can be uniquely identified based on the profile name.

When you select a profile, the relevant graphic dialog components are refreshed. The list of existing ELOas rules is also refreshed when you change profiles. This list displays the rules from the ELOas debugger profile currently in use. Double-click an ELOas rule to start the debug process for that rule.
