Preserve Breakpoints when Restarting Debug (Ctrl-Alt-F5)

[c***@my-deja.com]

Every time I restart a debug session, I lost all the breakpoints. Is
there a way to make it presist?

TIA

I'm not sure about breakpoints set using GUI, but 'bu' breakpoints
are saved in windbg workspace.

I mostly use kd/cdb which don't have workspaces. If I need to
preserve breakpoints across sessions, I use the .bpcmds
command to list all breakpoint commands and then paste
the output into the new session. As of now .bpcmds seems
undocumented, so the usual disclaimers apply - use at your
own risk, no promise it will be supported in the future, etc.

I just write down all of my breakpoint commands and paste them into a
notepad window as I enter them into the debugger; no undocumentedness
required for that.
