Sample Source for Debug Examples

Figure 105 on page 212 shows the source for the main procedure of DEBUGEX. Most of the examples and screens shown in this chapter are this source. Figure 106 on page 215 and Figure 107 on page 216 show th source for the called program RPGPGM and procedure cproc respectively

The program DEBUGEX is designed to show the different aspects of source debugger and ILE RPG formatted dumps. The sample dumps are in the next chapter.

The following steps describe how the program DEBUGEX was created fo these examples:
