Debugger: Difference between revisions

<dd>A boolean value indicating whether this <code>Debug</code> instance's hooks and breakpoints are currently enabled. It is an accessor property with a getter and setter: assigning to it enables or disables this <code>Debug</code> instance; reading it produces true if the instance is enabled, or false otherwise.

This property gives debugger code a single point of control for disentangling itself from the debuggee, even as the debugging interface evolves. (For example, when we add a watchpoint interface, disabling the debugger object will disable all its watchpoints as well.)
