[dos] into - for loop - the bp is not hit

[zakari]

hi,

I using a long batch file, all working fine, when I toggle a bp in a for loop never get a hit

FOR /F "usebackq delims==" %%f in (`dir *.doc /s /b`) do (
rem your code here
)

any tip?

What version are you using? Prior to v25, you cannot set a breakpoint inside a FOR loop (because it's treated as a single command). V25 added a way to do this.

2h ago I downloaded, writes
-CMDDebug v25.00.23x64
or the other application tested Take Command v25.00.23x64

at the begging of the batch I have :

setlocal enabledelayedexpansion

AFAIK, this is merely a CMD compatibility, what is called "delayed expansion" in CMD is effectively always enabled in TCC.

A FOR statement is considered a single command line by TCC (and CMD). You cannot set a breakpoint on an individual command inside the FOR loop; however what you can do is set a breakpoint on the FOR command, and then "step into" each command in the group.
