Starting the ILE Source Debugger

STRDBG Example

To	start a	debug	session for the sample debug program DEBUGEX and
OPM	program	RPGPGM,	type:

STRDBG PGM(MYLIB/DEBUGEX MYLIB/RPGPGM) OPMSRC(*YES)

The Display Module Source display appears as shown in Figure 75. DEBUG consists of two modules, an RPG module DBGEX and a C module cproc. Se “Sample Source for Debug Examples” on page 211 for the source for D cproc, and RPGPGM.

If the		entry module has a root source,	COPY,	or	listing view,		then
show	the	source of the entry module of	the	first program.		In	this
was created using DBGVIEW(*ALL) and so the			source		for the	main	modul
DBGEX,	is	shown.

	using the Service Program (SRVPGM) parameter on the					STRDBG
	command.		You can also add ILE service	programs to		a	debug		ses

Setting Debug Options

After you start a debug session, you can set or change the follow

¹Whether database files can be updated while debugging your pro option corresponds to the UPDPROD parameter of the STRDBG command.)

¹Whether text searches using FIND are case-sensitive.

¹Whether OPM programs are to be (This option corresponds to the

debugged using the ILE source d OPMSRC parameter.)
