In NetBeans, when you insert a Breakpoint and Debug project, it runs the code to the breakpoint and stops right at the line where we put Breakpoint. And then we can execute our code step by step. If we press F8 , which works in steps, NetBeans will execute the next line. Sometimes we want to go back to the previous executable line, because we want to change this line and see how it works.
So the question is, how can I say NetBeans Step Back (if we can call it that), so instead of executing the following line code, it does the previous line code? I remember in Visual Basic 6.0 (now I donβt know, because I donβt use it anymore) we could control the current line of execution, i.e. We could just drag the debug pointer to the desired line during debugging, and it will start executing the code right from where we placed it. Is this possible in NetBeans?

I am using NetBeans to debug a PHP application. PHP uses php_xdebug-2.1.0RC1-5.3-vc9-nts.dll to debug PHP code.
