This could be either a bug report or a feature request.pdb has conditional breakpoint feature where you can set a condition for the breakpoint to be effective. You can also usecondition command to change it.

The problem is - it never checks whether that condition is a valid expression. The expression will be evaluated when the breakpoint is hit and if there's a syntax error, it'll just consider itTrue. This is not an ideal behavior. We can warn the users if their inputcondition is not even a valid expression because under no circumstances that's the expected input. Also it would not be a valid command.
