Re: Debuging RPG IV/Java interface on the iSeries

Hi Duane,

Well, you've hit the limitation of the iSeries interactive debugger that is
part of WDSc.
It does not really handle JNI calls at this point.

However, you can use a Distributed Debugger, which is also part of the WDSc
product.
It is not integrated into the WDSc workbench and you would have to start it
from the
product folder. You will also need to issue STRDBGSVR command on your
iSeries.
Distributed Debugger does handle JNI calls between RPG and Java.

Hope this helps,
Vadim

I have a process in which an RPG program calls a Java method (several in
fact) and I want to debug the process to determine what is causing an error
in the Java method to be thrown. The Java methods are part of a soap
client,
and I need to determine if it is a problem with the client or server.
I am using WDSC 5.1.2.2 connected to a V5R2M0 iSeries.
I have no problems debuging the RPG programs and functions but whenever
Java
method is "called" the break points I have set in the Java method are not
hit. So thinking I had done something wrong I just stepped into the Java
method call, which after several hundred clicks on step-into these two
classes had been "run"

*CLASS /QIBM/ProdData/OS400/Java400/jdk/lib/java/beans/Introspector.class
*CLASS /QIBM/ProdData/OS400/Java400/jdk/lib/java/lang/ClassLoader.class

but the class that the method is in was never stepped into,

*CLASS
/soa/LocalTransactionAdapter_pkg/LocalTransactionAdapterSoapBindingStub.clas

s

and the debug finally returned to the RPG function, reporting that it had
completed the Java method successfully...

Does anyone have any idea what I am missing?
