RE: Strange acting program in debug

Actually, (at least at V5R3) you cannot do that, directly. Not sure which
OS level Richard is using, but at V5R3, here's what I do, using PDM:

14 next to member to be compiled
On command line, type:
DBGVIEW(*NONE) COMPILEOPT('DBGVIEW(*LIST)')

(you could put "*ALL" there, I suppose.)

Press ENTER. Voila!

(Which reminds me... anyone heard from David Foxwell lately?!?!)

Richard:

Try specifying DBGVIEW(*ALL) on your compile command and I think you
will find it will work much better.

So, I have this large (20k + lines) program that has me perplexed. I

made some minor changes to a subroutine. When testing, it did not
perform as desired, so I put in debug. This is where it gets very
strange....The subroutine builds an SQL statement. Then, as I step
through in debug, the next statement is an SQL prepare - but instead
the program goes to a subroutine that isn't even referenced in the
subroutine from which it came. It then goes through a few lines and
oddly returns to the subroutine where it began (although not where it
left off). My initial thought was source/object mis-match so I
recompiled, signed off& on and tried again, only to have the same
result.

I have consulted with 4 programmers in house but we are all stumped.

Does this sound familiar to anyone? Any suggestion/ideas would be much
appreciated.

Thanks.
