Hi,

I have several programs where I debug HUGE strings that return from Web-Service Calls....

So, I put in "Dummy-Arrays", so I can see the information DEBUG MODe....

Just my "Stupid Work-Around"... <LOL>

In Free Format, I might code my work-Field for Return Data like this:

DCL-DS Return_Data Len(32700);
Debug_Array CHAR(100) POS(1) Dim(327);
END-DS;

And I have "Debug_Array" where I can example all the data Returned from a web-service...

Oh well, it has worked quite well for me in Deubg mode. I have been able to view the Data in Hex-Mode inside RDI debug, and found out when I got "Unexpected Special Characters"...

It has saved me tons of time, when I have to debug an issue from the web-service...

Not the same as a string... I wonder I could this for debug...

Return_Data = %Str(MyString); // For Debug Only...

Inside of RDi Debug, I am usually limited to seeing only the first 1,024 characters of a big field. Which is why I sometimes code as a Data-Structure with a "Debug_Array" to view the data inside of debug mode.

PS. Too bad we can do a substring on the Characters conversion of the pointer with the " : C" option...
<Frown>

Nope...tried that, and it still limits me to 377.

Is there a space between field and ":C"? You need a space there.


Thanks, Matt

OK, so I tried the suggestion to add :C and a value to my string, and it works...sort of. In RDi for some reason if you specify a value greater than 377 characters, that's what it caps it to. So I try this as the variable to monitor:

&SQLSTR:C 2048

It only lets me see 377 bytes, not 2048. If I monitor just this:

&SQLSTL

It only lets me see 1024 bytes, not 2048. Am I keying in the :C part wrong?

Never mind...it compiles at 2048, but limits it at 1024, outside of RDi.
False alarm.

I have a CL program which has a defined field that is used to run SQL strings through QShell. The field length is 2048. The compiler recognizes it as a 2048 byte field, but when I try to view the same field in RDi V9.0.1 in debug, it shows it as a 1024 byte field with a piece of information at the right missing because it extends beyond the 1024th byte. This is also causing my QShell command to fail because it doesn't see the delimiter at the end. I'm using an INSERT INTO in the SQL, and have other examples where this INSERT command does work. But I find it odd about the field limitation. (Running this without using RDi debug doesn't work either, which makes me think it's an issue outside of RDi...but since it only shows a field length of 1024 in RDi in debug, that might be a clue...)

Any guidance on this?
