RE: **Debug options**

[Sunil Ramakumar <Sunil_Ramakumar@xxxxxxxxx>]

Hi Scott,

I am not sure, I understood you clearly, when you said putting the compile
listing in the program object. Also is there any need to debug a program
after it is moved to production. What I mean is we move a program to
production only after removing the errors. ( that is won't there be only run
time errors - if at all- any when the  program is into production ).

Sunil,

The *list debug option puts the compile listing inside the program object
for debugging.  One benefit that we take advantage of is being able to debug
the object without the source being available.  As we have one development
machine and several production machines this makes it easier to debug
programs on the production machines.
