Example 1

Debug.SetTraceMode(true); -- turn it on

Turns trace mode on. (The text after the "--" in this example is just a comment.)

Debug.SetTraceMode(false); -- turn it off

Turns trace mode off.

Example 3

-- Show the debug window.
Debug.ShowWindow(true);

-- Turn on the debug trace mode.
Debug.SetTraceMode(true);

-- Print some example text to the debug window.
Debug.Print("This is a test line that will be printed.\r\n");

-- Perform some addition and write it out to the debug window.
total = 6 + 2;
Debug.Print(total.."\r\n");

-- Print the current date to the debug window.
Debug.Print(System.GetDate(DATE_FMT_ISO).."\r\n");

-- Get the event context and print it to the debug window.
context = Debug.GetEventContext();
Debug.Print(context);

-- Determine if trace mode is turned on and print the result to the debug window.
trace_mode = Debug.GetTraceMode();
if trace_mode then
    Debug.Print("Trace mode is on.\r\n");
else
    Debug.Print("Trace mode is off.\r\n");
end

This example uses a few of the debug actions to output content to the debug window.
