MFC provides a special AfxDebugBreak function for hard-coding breakpoints in source code:

AfxDebugBreak( );

On Intel platforms, AfxDebugBreak produces the following code, which breaks in source code rather than kernel code:

_asm int 3

On other platforms, AfxDebugBreak merely calls DebugBreak.

Be sure to remove AfxDebugBreak statements when you create a release build or use #ifdef _DEBUG to surround them.
