RTVSRC requires either DBGVIEW(*ALL) or at least DBGVIEW(*LISTING) to recover source. Obviously, a *SOURCE view is pointless since the source must exist anyway and wouldn’t need to be recovered. DBGVIEW(*ALL) works because it includes *LISTING. In short, regardless of how many types ov debug views are included, the *LISTING view is the only one that matters. If that one’s missing, then RTVSRC has nothing to work with.

The default DBGVIEW(*STMT) doesn’t provide sufficient information to recover source — it only tracks statements at essentially the MI level, well below the source level.

It should be noted for accuracy that ILE programs don’t actually have source. Only modules have source. But that’s something of a technicality considering the question.
