How to create a breakpoint using ollydbg for a winApi function call, e.g. a breakpoint for a GetDigiItemA function call?


Ollydbg v.1 or v.2 I mean the types of breakpoints that could be set up in SoftIce during the program execution, e.g. getDigiItem, setDigiItemA.


Solution

  • To see the list of active breakpoints and disable/remove them, check the breakpoints window (Alt+B).

    If you are using the Command Bar plugin (for OllyDbg1 / for OllyDbg2), you can also write e.g. bp GetDlgItemTextA in the command bar.

    For OllyDbg1, there is also a useful plugin that adds a menu with often-used breakpoint locations, among a multitude of other features: IDAFicator.
