RE: Debugging a batch program

Mike,

After STRDBG exit out of the source.  You can't set a breakpoint here.

Release the jobq

A screen will come up saying to press F10 to debug or enter to continue.
Press F10

Then type DSPMODSRC, press enter

Now, you can set your break points.

Phil

How do I debug a batch program?

I know you can use STRSRVJOB and then use STRDBG. So what I did was put the
jobq on hold (test jobq so it is not a major thing to put on hold) so I
could get the job number. Then used STRSRVJOB on the job, followed by STRDBG
and was going to set a break point, but it wouldn't let me set one.
Something about "cannot perform this function when job is not active". Am I
doing something wrong? The job runs for about 20 seconds normally.

Thanks for any help in advance.

Mike

BTW this is a RPG program.
