which means that the debugger
processes the code changes that you make as you step through an application.

- From the main menu, click . The Preferences page is displayed.
- Expand EGL and click Debug.
The Debug dialog box is displayed.
- Click Enable
hotswapping.

save the changes and exit the page.
If hotswapping
is enabled and you change a function that is on the function
stack, the debugging session continues at the first line of the changed
function.
