Toad Debugger Breaking

Toad for Oracle
1

All,

I’m running Toad for Oracle Version 10.1.1.8 and have the debugger
setup to not break on exceptions. Back in Version 9.7 this worked
great. Now in the current version I am getting the debugger breaking
on all exceptions. The only difference I notice between having the
break on exception checkbox checked and not checked is that when
checked, I get an alert stating that an exception was encountered.
When it’s not checked, the debugger doesn’t show the alert, but does
stop at the point of the exception – which is in this case handled.
What do I need to do to get this to not break on all exceptions? Is
there another switch I need to set to get to the behavior I want?

I have some more information. If I select run to cursor, the process
behaves as I would like. When I select step over, exceptions cause a
break to occur.

Rumpi,
I’m not seeing this behavior. What version of Oracle are your running on? Can you create a sample proc that duplicates the issue?

I see this thread is quite old, but I have this problem too.

TOAD 10.5.0.41
Oracle 10.2.0.5.0

Did you find a fix?

Thanks,
Mark.

I still have this issue. Also, no response from Quest staff beyond a request
for a test case which I provided.

You might want to open a support case with Quest. This board is informal, so to
expect an answer to every question from a Quest person is a little unreasonable.

If you can provide the test case again, I’d be happy to try your scenario
in v10.6 and v11 – assuming it’s a Toad issue and not an Oracle one.

When I run this program

CREATE PROCEDURE raise_salary ( emp_id NUMBER , amount NUMBER ) AS

curr_sal NUMBER ;

BEGIN

SELECT sal INTO curr_sal FROM emp WHERE empno = emp_id ;

IF curr_sal IS NULL THEN

/* Issue user-defined error message. */

raise_application_error (- 20101 , ‘Salary is missing’ );

ELSE

UPDATE emp SET sal = curr_sal + amount WHERE empno = emp_id ;

END IF;

END raise_salary ;

And run with emp with NULL for salary, it breaks on Exception when the break on
exception option is enabled.

If I toggle that option off, and run again, it runs to completion and I get an
ORA-20101 & ORA-06512

So for me, it works as expected.

This is 11.2.0.1 running Toad v10.6
