Step into Lazarus system files

[Winch]

I have just started using Lazarus, and find that sometimes when debugging if I use the F7 (Step Into) key it steps into a maze of Lazarus system files. Is there any way of stopping this and restricting the debugger to my own files. I am willing to accept that my problems are not in the system files.

First: If you see you are in system files use F8 later.
Second: You can recompile Lazarus and FPC without debug info.

Thanks Thaddy for your quick reply. I think you are saying you can't turn it off.

I have used F8 and shift F8, when in system files, but it can take some time to get out and seems a bit of a pain as you never quite know when you are going to delve into the system files.

I appreciate that you can turn off the debugger - but I am at the stage when I need it.

You really have to recompile both FPC libraries and Lazarus libraries to get around that.
I just use F8, rather nervously... Because I use trunk.

Again thanks Thaddy. I have only just started using Lazarus, so am using what was downloaded. I think I will keep it simple and just carry on. I have had a Google of trunk but am not sure what it is and what it adds.
