Re: STRDBG problem with WATCH

Is errorMessage a local variable or a global one?

Hi,

I have this problem with the watch function on the iseries debugger for a long time. It's probably something I'm not understanding correctly. As I don't have access to the WDSc debugger so stuck with STRDBG, I'm asking here.

Here's an example :
With the program stopped at a break point on a CALLP ( errorMessage ) in module A, I notice that errorMessage is not blank before the call. So I do F17(watch) on errorMessage and F12 to continue.

The program breaks automatically in module B where errorMessage is initialized to blanks. F12 again and I arrive at my CALLP break point again, with the same message in errorMessage.

Whats occurring?

Thanks!
