I would have thought that would fix the issue. I am not sure what else
would cause that except the type of dump being taken? I have not had the
chance to code COBOL for over 18 months, so ...

Perhaps someone else can chime in.

Blessings!

Thank you! The size of the dump went up by a factor of 4! Much better.
But...............I still can't see the fields I was looking for - they're
still missing.



Here are the compiler options I'm using:

*XREF
*GEN
*NONUMBER
*MAP
*NORANGE
*NOSTDTRUNC
*APOST
*UNREF

Subject: Re: [COBOL400-L] COBOL ILE program dump not showing all
variables

It has to do with the compile options. The default option is *NOUNREF
which
means that if the variable is not referenced in the module, you will not
be
able to see the contents in debug or a program dump. If the module is
compiled with the option *UNREF, then those variables will be available
for
debug and dumps.

From the compile help:

*NOUNREF
Unreferenced data items are not included in the compiled module.
This reduces the amount storage used, allowing a larger program
to be compiled. You cannot look at or assign to an unreferenced
data item during debugging when the *NOUNREF option is chosen.
The unreferenced data items still appear in the cross-reference
listings produced by specifying OPTION (*XREF).

*UNREF
Unreferenced data items are included in the compiled module.

Hello.



We've just moved from COBOL OPM to COBOL ILE. When deliberately
producing
a dump by calling QlnDumpCobol, I'm not getting a dump of ALL the
variables.
But I am getting some of them. I can't understand why. I have several
fields in one 01-level which is in the FILE SECTION. The fields are
copied
in using COPY DD-ALL-FORMATS. Yet only one field from this 01-level is
printed in the dump. I've searched on QlnDumpCobol but it only tells me
that fields must be in the "HLL symbol table" for them to be dumped. I
would think all fields would be in the symbol table, but I don't know
much
about this.



Any ideas why fields are not appearing in the dump? TIA.
