RE: STRDBG/followup

No, there was nothing else that would be factually wrong. Actually,

http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/websphere/wsappserver/
docs/as400v35std/docs/dbgsetup.html

is the most helpful page of them all, for it mentions both DEBUGSOURCEPATH
and WebSphere command line property parameter. But, personally, I find it
exasperating having to roam loosely linked IBM sites in search of what
traditionally could be found in a just couple of IBM manuals available from
a single online documentation page. Hyperlink documentation, in my view, is
infinitesimally inferior to the good old set of BookManager manuals. By the
way, Info Center 5.1 contains yet another page on servlets debugging. It
suggests storing compiled classes in /QIBM/ProdData/Java400 which does not
work for packages - at least, I could not make it work. Very confusing.

Thank you again,

Lo

Glad you got it working. I have asked that the inaccurate info in step 1 be
corrected - it should say "javac -g MyServlet.java"
Apart from the misinformation in step 1, what was not useful on that page
or would make it more useful? We are always trying to improve our docs.

It's the -classpath command line property for the WebSPhere instance that
did the trick. STRDBG seems to do a bit of handshaking with the WebSphere
server instance job and, in doing so, find out where to look for the
classes
to be debugged. A separate STRDBG job environment variable  DEBUGSOURCEPATH
is used to locate the java source.

Info on
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/websphere/wsappserver/

docs/as400v35std/docs/dbgsetup.html

is not particularly helpful. For instance, I was not able to run javac in
the recommended form:

javac -g mycompany.myproduct.MyServlet.java

The source just would not be found.

Thanks for your your help,


Lo

You are supposed to specify the package scoped class name. I.e. if
MyClass.java has package staement: package com.mycompany.mystuff;
you would specify STRDBG CLASS(com.mycompany.mystuff.MyClass)

You might want to see if this info helps:
http://www-1.ibm.com/servers/eserver/iseries/software/websphere/wsappserver/

docs/as400v35std/docs/dbgas400.html

Some of the information is specific to WebSphere but most is not.

A follow-up: it does seem to work for unpackaged servlets, but not for
packages or jar files.

I'm trying to use STRDBG command in the servlet debugging scenario. I
followed Info Center instructions word for word, but STRDBG command just
would not find my class files. Given that on STRDBG I'm only supposed to
specify the name of the class, not the full path name, where does STRDBG
look for the class to debug?
