No limits are specified in "ILE application development Example" manual. 
You may try to reduce the number of variables by using DBGVIEW(*SOURCE)
instead of *LIST. 
I have a program whose listing takes about 1000 pages and never found
problem with ILE debugger: OPM compiler was unable to compile it. 
Ciao. regards

Hello.

Thanks for your interest.  I'll try to be more spesific:  The variables I
try to display, are all 05-level fields in a 01-level structure in
WORKING-STORAGE.  I read a record from a file into this structure(this is a
working program), so the file itself is of no interest here.

I haven't tried the very same structure in a smaller program, but I have
tried to display level 05-fields in smaller 01-level stuctures(in smaller
programs) and it works perfectly.

That's why I suspect the ILE debugger to have a practical limit on the
total numbers of fields it can handle within a 01-level structure,  or a
limit on total size of the data area inside the debugger?  Or something
like it.


Mvh.

You say that if you write down a small program with the same file structure
and same action the ILE debugger correctly shows 05 level ?
We're talking about a single record format file ? I mean, could the file
contain different record format, could you watch one not yet used by the
program ?
For more help please send a sample of your COBOL pgm.

Hello.

The problem is, the strukture(eg file) IS open.  I wonder if
WORKING-STORAGE simply can be too big.  This works on smaller programs.

Good morning
Is the level 05 relevant to a structure (i.e. file) not yet open ?
Domenico

structures(COBOL)



Problem:  Having compiled a COBOL-program(OPM) with *LSTDBG and started the
debugger , I'm trying to display the contents of level 05-fields(level 01
is working OK!) in WORKING-STORAGE.  When I f. ex. use the command 'eval
CUSTNO of WSCUSTREC', the debugger just loops, and never comes back.

If I try to display a level 05-field which do not need qualifying, I get
the message 'Pointer not set for location.....', which is not true, the
program is working.  This is quite a big program, 10 000 lines.  Navigation
in the program is working all right.

Can anyone help, please?


Mvh.
