External Breakpoint vs Session Breakpoint [RESOLVED]

Question: When I have try the debugging, and press the STOP icon, it came a menu
title External Debugging pops up

with the message ' External Breakpoint active according to editors settings. Should external or session breakpoint to be set'

What is the different between these two breakpoints?? What are the use? Which is better?

Answer:
I have never seen this menu! SAP version?

However, I would expect the "session" breakpoint to be the one you require!

Answer:
Activate external debugging in the ABAP Workbench.

a. To do this, call the ABAP Workbench using one of the transactions SE37, SE38, or SE80.
b. Choose Utilities -> Settings and then the ABAP Editor tab followed by Debugging.
c. Enter the user for which the debugging session is to take place. Select the Active
checkbox and deactivate IP-Matching.

What is this external debugging? And what is session Debugging?

I follow you to "Choose Utilities -> Settings and then the ABAP Editor tab" but there is no debugging tab/section.

Which SAP version are you using? We are 46C... (well, someone has to be!)
I expect session break points are only valid during your session. External break points may be visible to other users... But I can't be sure...

I would expect in 99% of all debugging, you would require "session" breakpoints...

Answer:
Session debugging is your usual debugging. External debugging triggers ABAP debug, when interacting with web pages. So when the web page requires a call back to ABAP, and you've set an external breakpoint in that code, a debug window pops up.

I never used it till I started some BW/SEM development.
