+<p>A breakpoint is represented by a unique identifier and set of properties.
+A breakpoint identifier (String id) needs to be unique across all hosts and targets.</p>
-<p>Breakpoint properties is extendable collection of named attributes,
-which define breakpoint location and behavior. The service defines some common
-attribute names, host tools and target agents may support additional attributes.</p>
+<p>A breakpoint's property set is an extendable collection of named attributes,
+which define the breakpoint's location, the conditions that trigger the breakpoint, and the actions
+executed as a result. As such, breakpoint properties are separated into three broad categories:
+<ul><b>
+ <li>Location properties
+ <li>Condition properties
+ <li>Action properties
+</b></ul>
+<p>The Location and Condition properties dictate how a breakpoint is installed and whether it should be triggered.
+The Action properties dictate the effect of the breakpoint if it is triggered.
+
+<p>The split of Location and Condition properties is subjective and is
+not meant to describe how it is implemented. Often, the Location
+properties dictate how a breakpoint is planted, and Condition
+properties dictate whether the breakpoint should be triggered.
+However, it is perfectly possible for an implementation to use
+Condition properties to control planting of a breakpoint and use
+Location properties each time the breakpoint is encountered to check
+if it should be triggered.
+
+<p>Unless stated otherwise, all Location and Condition properties have
+an implied "and" relationship. Conceptually, a breakpoint without any
+Location or Condition properties would be triggered by any state
+change in any of the attached contexts. Adding properties reduces the
+(sub)set of state changes that triggers the breakpoint.
+
+<p>The <b>Location properties category</b> contains the following properties:
+<p>Context defining properties specifying which context a breakpoint applies to are provided through the <a href='#propContextIds'>ContextIds</a>,
+<a href='#propContextNames'>ContextNames </a> or the <a href='#propExecPaths'>ExecutablePaths</a> properties.
+
+<p>The presence of certain properties defines what kind of breakpoint is planted.
+<ul>
+<li>Instruction breakpoints are either Line Breakpoints, which are configured using the <a href='#propFile'>File</a>,
+<a href='#propLine'>Line</a> and <a href='#propColumn'>Column</a> properties,
+or Address breakpoints, which are configured using the <a href='#propLocation'>Location</a> property.
+
+<li>Temporal breakpoints which are located on a time scale are configured using the <a href='#propTime'>Time</a>,
+<a href='#propTimeScale'>TimeScale</a>, and <a href='#propTimeUnits'> TimeUnits</a> properties.
+
+<li>Watchpoints are configured using the <a href='#propLocation'>Location</a>,
+<a href='#propAccessMode'>AccessMode</a>, <a href='#propSize'>Size</a>,
+<a href='#propMaskValue'>MaskValue </a>and <a href='#propMask'>Mask</a> properties.
+</ul>
+
+<p>The <a href='#propType'>Type</a> property configures whether the breakpoint should be installed as hardware or a software breakpoint.
+
+<p><b>Condition properties</b> contain the <a href='#propEnabled'>Enabled</a> property, the <a href='#propCondition'>Condition</a> and <a href='#propIgnoreCount'>IgnoreCount</a> properties.
+
+<p><b>Action properties</b> contain the <a href='#propStopGroup'>StopGroup</a> and <a href='#propTemporary'>Temporary</a> properties.
<p>For each breakpoint a target agent maintains another extendable collection of named attributes:
breakpoint status. While breakpoint properties are persistent and represent user input,
breakpoint status reflects dynamic target agent reports about breakpoint current state,
-like actual addresses where breakpoint is planted or planting errors.</p>
+like actual addresses where breakpoint is installed or installation errors.
-<p>Breakpoints are associated with communication channel and traget agent must remove them
-when the channel is closed. Target agent should maintain separate breakpoint table
-for each communication channel. It is allowed to set same breakpoint (same ID) through multiple
-channels, target agent should treat it as single breakpoint with maltiple references. Such breakpoint
-is removed when all refering channels are closed.</p>
