Hi All,

I would like to ask on the significance of arrow in the disassembly window.

When the program runs to fopen(), it hangs there and cannot proceed. Every time after I pressed the "run" button, the program immediately get paused again. Meanwhile, in the Disassembly window I see eight arrows on the left side. What does these arrows signify?

Sincerely

Each arrow indicates a PC location. Where there are multiple PCs displayed, this indicates parallel execution of these instructions.

Dear Andy,

Even there is no breakpoint the program still pauses and the disassembly windows displays multiple arrows. Is there any reason for this?

There are a variety of reasons that could cause a halt without a breakpoint. Could you provide a test case?
