Breakpoints don't work in STM32CubeIDE: "Breakpoint installation failed: unmatched quote"

[Vitos]

Hello everyone,

I have been having an issue with breakpoints in STM32CubeIDE. Each time I try to set a breakpoint, IDE tells me that the breakpoint installation failed because of an "unmatched quote", like in the screenshot below:

And when I run the program the IDE simply ignores all breakpoints that I set, because all of them, no matter where I try to install them, have that error.

This is an annoying issue because sometimes debugging the embedded applications without using breakpoints is quite difficult.

I have already tried to resolve the issue by creating a new workplace but to no avail.

Can anyone please help me resolve it? Thank you in advance for your time.

What version of CubeIDE ?

How are you setting this breakpoint - it complaining about an unmatched quote suggests the command line?

Is anything shown in the debug console window?

Hello,

My current version ofSTM32CubeIDE is 1.16.0

I set the breakpoint by clicking twice on the vertical line located from the left side of the code, after code line numbers (in the screenshot you can see the highlighted blue line, that's where I clicked).

I am afraid I am not seeing any change in the Debug Console window when I try to set a breakpoint.

I see this kind of thing (IDE v1.13.0):

This is what I see before I set the breakpoint:

And this is what I see after I set the breakpoint:

I am not seeing any change in the Debugger Console.

I guess you can set the breakpoint without receiving the "unmatched quote" warning on your IDE?
