Thanks. We'll let you know when a new response is added.

Hi,

If you use STRISDB there is plenty of help text to explain what the features are – just press help or F1 and you should be able to find what you need. How you debug your program is very much dependent on the what the program does and how it is written.

Regards,

Martin Gilbert.

The newer version is STRDBG. When used with an old version of RPG simple set parm OPMSRC(*YES) Press HELP key for options.

STRISDB has been effectively obsolete for a decade. There is little familiarity with STRISDB any more. Use STRDBG with OPMSRC(*YES) specified. To start, run the STRDBG command giving the name of the program to be debugged along with OPMSRC(*YES). If the program can be debugged, the program source will be displayed. Search through the source to find and set any breakpoints that you want available at first. Then pres <F12> to exit out of the debug command. Run whatever is needed to get your program to run. When any instruction at a breakpoint is reached, the debug display will automatically open for you. You can then do any debug actions such as stepping through the statements and displaying variables. When finished, press <F12> to allow the program to complete. Then run ENDDBG to close the debug session. Tom

You will have to compile the program with OPTION(*SRCDBG) to use STRDBG.
