Xuan,
I have tried setting a line breakpoint inside called program the
first time a SEP in encountered. Then hit F8 to resume and WDSC does NOT
stop at line breakpoint on second call to program.
Does this work for you?

Thanks.

Andy,

SEP is not a regular line breakpoint. It is a mechanism used to put a job
under debug easily. The debug session will be trigged when the program
(or module or procedure) where this breakpoint set is executed AND if the
job (running this program) has not been under debug yet. That is why the
first CALL, a debug session is invoked. But for the second CALL, since
this job has already under debug, and SEP is not really a line breakpoint,
your COBOL program will just run to completion.

You may need to set a line breakpoint in the called program when you first
stop there.

Thanks,

The following is condensed version of a COBOL program.



PROCEDURE DIVISON.

CALL 'programname'

MOVE

MOVE

IF

Whatever

CALL 'programname' (same name as first call)



I can set a SEP on 'programname' and WDSC will stop and pull up DEBUG
session. I can look at variables, setup breakpoints, and do whatever I
need
to do. After I leave first call I would expect to stop at second call
(with
SEP) to the program, but WDSC does not stop. The originating programs
ends.



Has anyone seen this situation?
