Hey Vern,

Just managed to get a hold of the source for my debug utility

Attached is a text file containing the source for 3 objects:

STRSRVDBG *CMD
ENDSRVDBG *CMD
SRVDGC *PGM

Just split out the separate bits of source into their own members and
compile.

Hope you find it useful!

Hi Rory

That sounds cool, likely works really well when you know the job you
are debugging - whereas SEP breakpoints - set using SBREAK in a debug
session - help when you don't know the job.

Your program could be useful in the secondary job where one has to
STRSRVJOB and STRDBG with information that is displayed when a
breakpoint is reached.

I ended up creating a command and CL program called STRSRVDBG (Start
Service Debug) - it's a combination of STRSRVJOB and STRDBG, but
allowing job/program selection. I will dig out the source if anyone
wants it, but it's pretty easy to write your own, and *very* useful
if you need to do lots of green screen batch program debugging...

Thanks Scott and everyone.

I used the sep in green for now and it was due to the program
compile issue.

Sorry to be so stupid last night :)

Even in the green-screen STRDBG, you can use a SEP. It's much more

clumsy/cumbersome than doing a SEP via RDi, but if RDi isn't
available, it's still an easy way to make sure you find the right

STRSRVJOB to run.

As for why the STRSRVJOB isn't working -- my guess is that the
program

is just never hitting the breakpoint that was set. i.e., it's not
doing what you expect :-)

If you have RDi available, I would suggest using a service entry

debug.
