The debugger statement invokes any available debugging functionality, such as setting a breakpoint. If no debugging functionality is available, this statement has no effect.

Syntax

debugger;

Examples

The following example shows code where a debugger statement has been inserted, to invoke a debugger (if one exists) when the function is called.

function potentiallyBuggyCode() {
    debugger;
    // do potentially buggy stuff to examine, step through, etc.
}

When the debugger is invoked, execution is paused at the debugger statement. It is like a breakpoint in the script source.

Paused at a debugger statement.
