I'm having trouble debugging a program that passes a data structure into a function. I've managed to create a small bit of sample code that fails on a V5R2 machine. Anyone know what the problem may be? Here is the code: H dftactgrp(*no) * Declare a stuff template. Shouldn't use memory because it's based * Right??? Dstuff_t ds based(@) D alpha 20 D unsigned 10i 0 * Declare an 'instance' of the stuff template. This one should * allocate static storage D mystuff ds likeds(stuff_t) D rc s n D test pr n D stuff likeds(stuff_t) /free rc = test(mystuff); eval *inlr = *on; // Breakpoint 1 here /end-free ************************************************************************** * Run a test... ************************************************************************** test b test pi n stuff likeds(stuff_t) result s n /free stuff.alpha = 'Hello, World'; stuff.unsigned = 1; return *on; // Breakpoint 2 here /end-free test e I've compiled the code as DBGVIEW(*LIST) and added breakpoints as indicated in the code. The problem is that at breakpoint number 2, I can't review the 'stuff' data structure as I receive CPF7E12 'Identifier does not exist', as follows: EVAL stuff Identifier does not exist. Of course, I can review 'mystuff' with no difficulty: EVAL mystuff MYSTUFF.ALPHA = 'Hello, World ' MYSTUFF.UNSIGNED = 1 In my opinion, 'stuff' should be in the symbol template of the program. I should not have to find the caller of the function to inspect it's variables, right?
