Format

Disables the specified action points

ddisable action-point-list [ -block number-list ]

Disables all action points

ddisable -a

Arguments

action-point-list

A list of the action points to disable.

-block number-list

If you set a breakpoint on a line that is ambiguous, use this option to identify the instances to disable. Obtain a list of these numbers using the dactions command.

-a

Disables all action points.

Description

The ddisable command temporarily deactivates action points. To delete an action point, use ddelete.

You can explicitly name the IDs of the action points to disable or you can disable all action points.

If you do not indicate a focus, the default focus is the process of interest (POI).

Note that you cannot disable a nullified action point, i.e., one that points to an invalid address block.
