I am writing a small IDE with Single Steps using the Debugdemo. Now I need an Event before and after a line is executed. I would like to disable my Editor while the current Line is executed. I found the OnLine Event but did not find out in what cases it is fired or how I can use it. Any hints are welcome.

Greetings Klaus

The OnLine event is meant to alter the interpretation of code.
It is not meant for debugging purposes.

If you want to do that use the BreakPoints in TPSScriptDebugger.
Put a breakpoint on the line and after the line.
Now you will get a signal before and after the line is executed.

  • Hello @Johan, thank you for answering. Seems my desription was not as clear as possible. I do not need breakpoints. I would like to have kind of visual feedback that a line is currently beening executed (some of my functions need several seconds). So the idea is (for example): - display a _running_ in the statubar when the user presses F8 and - display _stopped_ when the line is processed. – Klaus.Meier May 04 '16 at 13:56
  • Yes, that's what a breakpoint would provide. If you have clarifications you should put them in your question, not scatter them around in comments :-) – Johan May 04 '16 at 13:58
