<h2><a name='Overview'>Overview</a></h2>

<p>The service provides basic run control operations for execution contexts on a target.
Command and event parameters are encoded as zero terminated <a href='TCF Specification.html#JSON'>JSON</a> strings.</p>

<p>The service uses standard format for error reports,
see <a href='TCF Services.html#ErrorFormat'>Error Report Format</a>.</p>

<h2><a name='Cmds'>Commands</a></h2>

<p>All run control commands are fully asynchronous, which means they never wait until
context is in a particular state. For example, if single step command arrives when
context is running, it does not wait until it stops, but returns an error. If a command
successfully resumed a context, it does not wait until instruction pointer reaches
desired destination &ndash; from client point of view the command execution ends right after
context was resumed. Various stepping commands can leave a context running in a special
mode, which is different from normal execution, for example, it can leave temporary
breakpoints to suspend the context when control reaches a particular place. Such execution
mode ends when the context is suspended, even if it was suspended for reasons unrelated
to the command and intended destination was not reached. Client can know when and
why a context is suspended by listening to events.</p>

<pre><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>
C &bull; <i>&lt;token&gt;</i> &bull; RunControl &bull; getContext &bull; <i>&lt;string: context ID&gt;</i> &bull;
</font></b></pre>

<p>The command retrieves context properties for given context ID.
Exact meaning of context depends on the target.
A context can represent an execution thread, a process, an address space, etc.
A context can belong to a parent context. Contexts hierarchy can be simple
plain list or it can form a tree. It is up to target agent developers to choose
layout that is most descriptive for a given target. Context IDs are valid across
all services. In other words, all services access same hierarchy of contexts,
with same IDs, however, each service accesses its own subset of context's
attributes and functionality, which is relevant to that service.</p>

<p>Context data object is collection of context properties. It should, at least, contain member
<b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"ID" : <i>&lt;string&gt;</i></font></b>.
It can also contain arbitrary number of components
describing context properties and capabilities. Context data is supposed to be cached
by clients and it is not expected to change frequently. It can include, for example,
context name or ability to perform single step command on the context. But, it should
not include volatile data like current PC or running/suspended state. Service sends
contextChanged event to notify changes in context data.</p>

<p>Predefined run control context properties are:</p>
<ul>
    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"ID" : <i>&lt;string&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - ID of the context, same as getContext command argument.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"ParentID" : <i>&lt;string&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - ID of a parent context.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"IsContainer" : <i>&lt;boolean&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - true if the context is a container.
    Executing resume or suspend command on a container causes all its children to resume or suspend.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"HasState" : <i>&lt;boolean&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - true if the context is an execution context, therefore
    has an execution state, like state of a program counter (PC).
    Only context that has a state can be resumed or suspended.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"CanSuspend" : <i>&lt;boolean&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - true if Suspend command is supported for this context. It does not mean that the command can be executed successfully in
    the current state of the context. For example, the command still can fail if context is already suspended.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"CanResume" : <i>&lt;int: bitset of resume modes&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - for each resume mode, corresponding bit is '1' if Resume command mode is supported for this context, and '0' otherwise.
    It does not mean that the command can be executed successfully in
    the current state of the context. For example, the command still can fail if context is already resumed.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"CanCount" : <i>&lt;int: bitset of resume modes&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - for each resume mode, corresponding bit is '1' if Resume command mode with count other then 1 is supported by the context.

    <li><code><b><font face="Courier New" size=2 color=#333399>"CanTerminate" : <i>&lt;boolean&gt;</i></font></b></code>
    - true if Terminate command is supported by the context,
</ul>

C &bull; <i>&lt;token&gt;</i> &bull; RunControl &bull; getChildren &bull; <i>&lt;string: parent context ID&gt;</i> &bull;
</font></b></pre>

<p>The command requests list of execution contexts available for run control commands.</p>

<p>Parent context ID can be null &ndash; to retrieve top level of the hierarchy, can be one
of context IDs retrieved by previous getChildren commands, or it can be obtained from another service.
Contexts hierarchy can be simple plain list or it can form a tree. It is up to target agent developers to
choose layout that is most descriptive for a given target.</p>

<p>The command suspends execution of given context. The command should fail if CanSuspend property of the context is false.
If context's IsContainer = true, the command is propagated to context's children. Only contexts with HasState = true
can be suspended.</p>

<p>The command resumes execution of given context. The command should fail if CanResume
property of the context is '0' for given mode. If context's IsContainer = true, the command is propagated
to context's children. Only contexts with HasState = true can be resumed.</p>
<p>The command can have optional argument that contains set of resume parameters, for example stepping range definition.</p>

<p>Resume modes:</p>
    <ul>
        <li>
            <code>RM_RESUME = 0</code> - resume normal execution. Execution will
            continue until suspended by command or breakpoint.
        </li>

        <li>
            <code>RM_STEP_OVER = 1</code> - step over a single instruction. If instruction
            is function call, execution continues until control returns from the function.
        </li>

        <li>
            <code>RM_STEP_INTO = 2</code> - single instruction in given context.
        </li>

        <li>
            <code>RM_STEP_OVER_LINE = 3</code> - resume execution of given context until control reaches instruction
            that belongs to a different line of source code, but runs any functions called at
            full speed. Error is returned if line number information not available.
        </li>

        <li>
            <code>RM_STEP_INTO_LINE = 4</code> - resumes execution of given context until control reaches instruction
            that belongs to a different line of source code. If a function is called,
            stop at first line of the function code. Error is returned if line number
            information not available.
        </li>

        <li>
            <code>RM_STEP_OUT = 5</code> - resume execution of given context until control returns from current
            function.
        </li>

        <li>
            <code>RM_REVERSE_RESUME = 6</code> - reverse of <code>RM_RESUME</code>; resume backward execution. Execution will
            continue until suspended by command or breakpoint.
        </li>

        <li>
            <code>RM_REVERSE_STEP_OVER = 7</code> - reverse of <code>RM_STEP_OVER</code>; reverse step over a single instruction.
        </li>

        <li>
            <code>RM_REVERSE_STEP_INTO = 8</code> - reverse of <code>RM_STEP_INTO</code>; reverse step into a single instruction in the given context.
            This effectively "un-executes" the previous instruction.
        </li>

        <li>
            <code>RM_REVERSE_STEP_OVER_LINE = 9</code> - reverse of <code>RM_STEP_OVER_LINE</code>; resume backward execution
            of given context until control reaches an instruction that belongs to a different source line.
            If the line contains a function call then don't stop until get out of the function.
            Error is returned if line number information not available.
        </li>

        <li>
            <code>RM_REVERSE_STEP_INTO_LINE = 10</code> - reverse of <code>RM_STEP_INTO_LINE</code>; resume backward execution of given context
            until control reaches an instruction that belongs to a different line of source code.
            If a function is called, stop at the beginning of the last line of the function code.
            Error is returned if line number information not available.
