You can only debug one function per session at a time. After you set debugging on for a function, debugging remains enabled until one of the following occurs:
  • Debugging is turned off for the function.
  • Debugging is turned on for another function with a subsequent SET SESSION DEBUG FUNCTION statement.
  • The session terminates.

After you set debugging on for a function and a query invokes the function, the function is passed to the debugger. If a debugger is not active, the query cannot complete until the debugger is started, attaches to session running the query, and allows all instances of the function being debugged to complete.
