Debug and SEP Service entry prints

original post [1] (the post contains a lot of other information)

  • In Iseries Table View
  • Right Click on the Source
  • Select Debug(service Entry)/Set Service Entry Point
  • Next Panel Click OK (I have not done Service Programs)
  • If you get a 'Iseries Debug Message has not been started yet' message, follow the instruction, then try again.
  • When the SEP is is set click OK.
  • Run the program, however you normally would, eg. call, menu option, whatever.
  • You need to run the program under the User Profile in the SEP
Check Service Entry Point, if you need to change the user profile of the SEP.
  • The WDSC Debug view should pop up and you can set breakpoints view variables etc. etc. check Interactive Debugger

Clear Breakpoints

original post [2]

  • In the Debug perspective
  • Click the Breakpoints tab
  • There is an icon, (looks like a double X) to remove all Breakpoints

You can manage ALL of your breakpoints across multiple programs and multiple languages, both on the client and on the server. You can enable and disable them, as well as remove them entirely.

Field Values

original post [[3]]

  • Window -> Preferences -> Run/Debug -> Compiled Debug
  • Check Tick, 'Always use Debugger Editor while debugging'

FWIW I also Check Tick

  • Allow hover evaluation
  • Double-Click in Debugger Editor to add monitored expression
  • Centre view on execution line

(FKOL 21:17, 4 February 2008 (CST))

In V6.0, the debugger started to use iSeries Editor as the default editor to display the source. The fly over expression evaluation was available in OPM RPG, ILE RPG and ILE COBOL.

Debug Breakpoints not breaking

When Debugging, also when debugging SQLRPGLE

  • Use listing view
  • Turn off all caching. Window -> Preferences -> Remote systems -> File Cache, ______ Click 'Clear cached files'
  • Window -> Preferences -> Remote systems -> iSeries -> Cache, ______ Check 'disable caching' and click on the 'Clear cache' button.
  • Refresh the table view often, especially before setting the SEP.
