Setting and Removing Breakpoints

5.After the breakpoint is set, press F12 (Cancel) to leave the Wor Breakpoints display. Press F3 (End Program) to leave the ILE source debugger. Your breakpoint is not removed.

6.Call the program. When a breakpoint is reached, the program stops Display Module Source display is shown again. At this point you ca through the program or resume processing.

Example	of Setting a Conditional Job Breakpoint Using the
BREAK	Command

In this example, we want to stop the program when the date field certain value. To specify the conditional job breakpoint using the BR

1. From the Display Module Source display, enter:

break 128 when BigDate='1994-09-30'

A conditional job breakpoint is set on line 128.

2.After the breakpoint is set, press F3 (End Program) to leave the debugger. Your breakpoint is not removed.

3.Call the program. When a breakpoint is reached, the program stops Display Module Source display is shown again.

National Language Sort Sequence (NLSS)

Non-numeric conditional breakpoint expressions are divided into the follo types:

¹Char- 8: each character contains 8 bits

This corresponds to the RPG data types of character, date, time timestamp.

¹Char-16: each character contains 16 bits (DBCS)
