Abstract
Optimization of computer program code can be performed during compilation of the computer program code. During the compilation of the computer program code, at least a first location in the computer program code that performs a calculation on at least one parameter value that affects a user experience provided by the computer program code can be automatically determined. During the optimization, a first implicit sequence point can be inserted into the computer program code at the automatically determined first location, wherein the first implicit sequence point is configured to provide a virtual read of at least a first symbol contained in the computer program code when the first implicit sequence point is reached during execution of the computer program code during a debug operation performed on the computer program code after the computer program code is optimized and compiled.
