[Bug 681091] [NEW] breakpoint on empty lines = NO OP

 

Public bug reported:

a breakpoint that is added to a line that does not contain an
instruction is handled like a "NO OP" at the moment, this applies for
example to empty lines or lines containing comments:


jmp start
start:
; empty line here (set breakpoint)
mvi a,255

hlt


Most people would probably expect that the  breakpoint applies to the next valid instruction instead, so that they can literally be added "in between" instructions, without requiring the breakpoint to be in the same line as the instruction itself.

At the moment, such breakpoints are not handled at all
