Access to the Runtime Explorer  


 

 

The Runtime Explorer window allows you to view the behavior of the different structural elements in your database and to verify that the available resources are operating as expected. The Runtime Explorer is particularly useful in your database’s development and analysis phase. 

The Runtime Explorer window can be displayed in the Design and Application environments, in both compiled or interpreted mode.

In password-protected databases, only the Designer and Administrator have access to the Runtime Explorer window.

The Runtime Explorer can be displayed in two types of windows: in a standard window or in a floating palette. The floating palette always remains in front of other open windows.

  • To display the Runtime Explorer in a standard window, choose Runtime Explorer from the Run menu.
  • To display the Runtime Explorer as a floating palette:
    • press Ctrl+Shift+F9 (Windows) or Command+Shift+F9 (Mac OS)
    • or hold down the Shift key and choose Runtime Explorer from the Run menu.

The Runtime Explorer window has four pages that are accessed via buttons on the left-hand side: Watch, Process, Break, and Catch.
