For some odd reason, I can't use breakpoints in my eclipse project. All breakpoints that I set have a diagonal line on them, above the dot in the respective line (on the left margin of the window), as if they are blocked. When I run in debug mode, the breakpoints are ignored. Any ideas?

You've probably just pressed "Skip All Breakpoints" in the Breakpoint view - simply press it again.

Skip All Breakpoints (Ctrl + Alt +V)

Default key bindings are: Ctrl + Alt + B.
