RE: Get source from object?

[funderwood@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx]

In previous debuggers, weren't you warned when the source and 
the object didn't agree?  Seems like I remember that.  Anyway, I 
always run the compiler set to *list.  It gives you a lot more than
*source does, but doesn't generate every view like *all.  If you
have the list view, do the others have anything you don't?

I can attest to the fact that if you compile with DBGVIEW(*SOURCE) then
change the source, then debug the program, what you see is the changed
source, and some weird stuff happens.

Hi Dan,

Forgive me, but do you mean DBGVIEW(*LIST)?  I thought DBGVIEW(*SOURCE)
meant that the debugger referred back to the actual source member?

The following text appears in the help for the CRTBNDRPG command:

 *SOURCE
     Generates the source view for debugging the compiled program object
     This view is not available if the root source member is a DDM file.
     Also, if changes are made to any source members after the compile
     and before attempting to debug the program, the views for those
     source members may not be usable.

It doesn't directly say that *SOURCE refers to the actual source member,
but it does imply that if you change the source member, what you see in
the debugger may not be relevant -- so to me that implies that it's using
the actual source.

Obviously, if that source were deleted, DBGVIEW(*SOURCE) wouldn't help --
so I'm guessing that you actually meant DBGVIEW(*LIST) -- or that I'm just
totally wrong.
