Re: DBGVIEW *ALL Question

Bill,

No, unless you normally run in debug mode. :)  The debug info is
stored in separate pages, so is not even loaded in memory unless run
under debug..  A pretty neat design.

>and will it use up a lot more space?

It will take more space, but I wouldn't call it "a lot more".  On the
systems I work on, the % of DASD used by application program libraries
is fairly trivial compared to the % consumed by data.  So even if each
program takes "a lot more space" than the same program without the
debug info, the overall effect on the system is not "a lot more".

YMMV.

Personally, I like having the debug info available, but use *LIST as
my default.
