Details:

Debugger encapsulates the interface to Phoenix’s runtime debugger. Using its properties you can determine whether the debugger is Available, and if it is available whether or not it is currently suspended. The two boolean properties, TrapSystemExceptions and TrapInterpretiveExceptions, are useful in enabling or preventing the debugger from suspending whenever system or interpretive exceptions are thrown. The property IgnoreExceptionsModule is used by the Phoenix interface to keep the Debugger from suspending in code that is running the interface, when an exception is thrown from one of these methods.
