Description:

I describe a breakpoint: its state (enabled/disabled),
condition, etc.

I may be shared by multiple instances of Breakpoint,
since there may be multiple version of same method
with breakpoints on different position but representing
the same logical breakpoint (the one set by the user).

Class protocol:

 new

return an initialized instance

Instance protocol:

 condition

 condition: something

 icon
( an extension from the stx:libtool package )

do not use abbreviations like bpnt or brp or similar;
when I do not know the exact name, I tend to search for implementors/senders
of '*break*' or '*disabled*'.
I will not find anything useful and have to single step if methods are named
cryptically.

 initialize

Invoked when a new instance is created.

usage example(s):

super initialize. -- commented since inherited method does nothing

 beInvisible

 beTracepoint

 disable

 shouldBreakIn: aContext

 shouldTraceIn: aContext

 toggle

 isEnabled
