Infinite Loops

Hi,
Is there a ctrl-break function to break infinite loops in VB for grasshopper?

Thanks.

Nope. Your code, your responsibility :)

It would be practically impossible for me to kill a loop I didn't write without leaving the entire program in an undefined state.

Ok.
But would it be possible to implement some a coding tool bar similiar to what we have in VB express such as the debug, breakpoint and step through functions? An immediate window, locals window and mass commenting would also aid incredibly when debugging.

Unfortunately, there is no way to check the code right now without running the whole chunk of it.

Thanks.

I think it would be a waste of my time to try and duplicate something which already exists for free (VS Express debugger). I think it would probably be more effective if I were to allow you to write your script code in VS instead so you could use that debugger.
